Love...

Love is not just a word
It's a feeling in the heart
So special and undying
Pulls two closer, not apart.

It is there to be shared
Among our friends and lovers
And with brothers and sisters
With our fathers and mothers.

The world seems much brighter
In everything that you do
By sharing those special words
Telling someone "I Love You"...

Yet love can be painful
It can hurt in many ways
When playing with ones' feelings
Eventually someone pays.

So special and tender
You need to use gentle care
For love comes from in your heart
And is meant for you to share.
