Love Comes In Many Shades

Love comes in many shades Ranged as on a colour chart From “like” to “can’t live without” Some love knows only sunlight Others inhabit the dark places Some are shallow and superficial Others deep and intensive Love can simply be physical Or a mere infatuation It can be companionable, platonic Or purely spiritual Love is both simple and complex. Often at the same time It can be of the moment Or woven through the fabric of your life It can be merely a veneer Or layered in strata But the simple truth is that love Is the glue that holds the universe together
