Love

Love Love is the most loosely used four letter word I can't live without you, I question my existence without you, I am dependent on you, You're my habit and therefore I would twist myself to be loved by you so I don't let you go because I love you But is this love? Love is giving, love lets you breath, love sets you free Love is peace within, Love is mighty and love doesn't cause anxiety If you make a different choice today, Do I have the heart to smile and say- I wish you happiness in your new found choices and your better way We know love in many forms- Dependency, obsession, habit, arrangement, adjustment, suffocation but none of that is love Love is also not triggering love in someone and then making their choice for them and giving it the name of letting go Love is when you're in love with me and I come to you and tell you about my changed choices. Your heart still aches but that ache has the courage to send a smile to your face And helps you say, "I let you go because you wanna go" The eyes can't decide if the tears are of the pain of seeing you go or of the contentment of seeing you content Love is a lot of letting go yet love is peace within, Love has no boundaries yet love is not betrayal either, Love is confusion yet love brings clarity, Love is mighty, Love lets you be and love lets me be yet we can co-exist.. -Jagjot Kaur

And the highest form of love is agape - love based on principle. Self sacrificing. Warm. Nice poem Jagiot
