More Than a Feeling
Love isn't just a single word
or feeling
Said to tickle an ear and
leave you reeling
Nor is love abstract and
void of care
But what one envisions and
does all year
We convey our love by
things that we do
When a loved one is hurting
we hurt too
Love is conveyed by deeds
not merely said
And connects us all with a
common thread
Love is single soul
embedded in two separate
bodies
That keeps the heart
beating for many centuries
Love isn't a feeling for a
short period
For Its care is countless and
myriad
Love is a word some find
difficult to say
But it leaves an enormous
price to pay
Love is feeling of endless
sacrifice
That can never be bought
with no price
Love is bond that binds two
souls
Its a great gift that must be
extols
Love is a shield that not
only blinds our heart from
hate
But distance our soul from
all forms of irate
Love means when one
hurts us, we forgive
Not five years later to bring
up and relive
Love takes our soul to
where it belong
for it keeps no record of
wrong
Love means to give without
asking
For it makes living on earth
basking
Love is boundless and
priceless
Its limitation is endless
Love sometimes forces on
us a ling wait
But love never delegates us
power to dictate
Love is that master key to
the door of happiness
Its the bricks that forms the
mantle of success
We don't have to agree
with each other to love
For God gave me what I
was unworthy of
What's held in your heart
your mouth will speak
So before speaking do a
mental critique
love is never idle or to be
cast in mothballs
I see love as a servant in
coveralls
In short, Love is GODS
nature in procreation
For it's the genesis of
human creation
