Love

Love is the part of Folks
That's felt, but never seen
the greatest mystery
No scientist knows what it means
It's more feared
Than death itself
Yet valued
Far more than wealth;
What's still confusing 
To all or some,
It's not just felt,
It's something done;
So, now, I'm gonna try 
To explain as best as I can
What I believe LOVE is
So You'll understand;
Now when You truely Love
I mean totally
You'd give Your life 
Indefinitely,
You'd aide and assist
Wherever need be,
This too involves
Faith and Loyalty;
Seeing through the flaws,
To the heart of it all;
LOVE is strength,
Not judgement calls;
But let Me show You LOVE
In a more complete manner,
Let Me get  
To the Soul of this matter;
GOD said HE put
In Us all, some of HIM,
It's the reason why JESUS 
Hung on those limbs;
Remember there's a piece of You
That may never end,
The part where each individual
First must begin,
Now think, in I John 4:16
"GOD is LOVE",
And then what The VOICE said
Moses heard from above,
Exodus 3:14, HE said,
"I AM that I Am"
So, if I have LOVE,
Then it's LOVE that I Am;
Because GOD's been there,
In Me, since the begining of time,
Even when I'm sinning
HE's still in the back of My mind;
Now do You see what I feel for,
And see in You My Sister/Brother,
Do You understand why
HE said to "LOVE one another"?
Can You fathom how
When You're in pain, I hurt too?
And that it's important I give
However, whenever it's due?
And do You now believe
When I give so much LOVE to You,
That it's genuine, unconditional,
It's permanent and true,
It's the only part of Me 
That's guaranteed eternal,
Til the wheels fall off,
And hell's a burnt up inferno
I give You My Love,
GOD's LOVE
It won't burn Ya
