Love

Love Do you believe? You deserve to be loved Do you believe? It’s about give and take In, and of itself Deserve; is a selfish word And no one ‘deserves’ to be loved But, to give Unconditionally You Deserve To Love Another And with truth May you reap in all you sow © 2017 Jeffrey Spencer

Hi Darlene, I also believe in love, very much! My attempt here is to examine the root of ones love. Do I love thy .... because, or Do I love thy.... 'just' because! To love without expectation is true love. Therefore, the GIVE outweighs the TAKE! Thank You for stopping by and your comment. Have a great day! J
