Notes About The Poem

The Simplest Love Story

Some people say there are no simple love stories…
and plainly they have stated…
if it’s simple it must not be love
for love is complicated…

They sight example after example
and believe this with all certainty!
But there are others who look at love 
and beg to disagree.

For them, love is simple..
It’s when they realize they’re no longer alone…
and when someone else’s happiness
is more important than their own…

For they know love is easy
and plainly have they stated
the best love is a simple love
and need not be complicated…

For they have known love in their lives
by love they have been blessed…
and they know when it comes to love stories
oftentimes…the simplest…are the best.
