Love

Love is more then just a concept, 
or word we use each day; 
And when we let our hearts take the lead, 
love follows in the way. 
For love is what we all should carry, 
deep inside our hearts; 
And twords our fellow man, 
loves the gift we should impart. 
But in this imperfect world 
in which we live today; 
Love seems to be nothing more, 
then just a word we say. 
What a shame\ this truly is, 
for few will ever know; 
The kind of love we all search for, 
and need in life to grow. 
God place your love inside my heart, 
so that I might share; 
The love you have and long to give, 
to men every where. 
For life is very precious, 
and love it seems so rare; 
Please let me show your love to others, 
Lord this is my prayer!
