Love is quite powerful All shades and variations of it For instance, love... Between mother and baby Between father and son Between brothers and sisters Between close friends, husband and wife One's love for life and freedom A soldier's love for country An intense love that sneaks up Suddenly, unannounced Love is quite powerful, especially... A love that is pure and unconditional A candle no gust of wind could ever extinguish Infinitely more powerful than hate could ever be More powerful than all the things That explode, such as a bomb, a firework After all, isn't love what makes the world go round? Isn't it what makes life truly worth living? It's not just powerful, it's unconquerable!
