Went for a Walk

I went for a walk today But really walking's how I pray I prayed to God up above For him to show me how to love I think I may have done it wrong Not just this time but all along You see...., "Love is precocious and innocent Not self-righteous and dissonant Love is acceptance and compromise Not a tool with which to ostracize Love is boundless and abundant Not binding and reductant Love is careful and yet fearless Never easy and never tearless Love is blindly unassuming Never wilted,endless blooming Love is allowing and imprecise Love is selflessness and sacrifice Love is reckless and it's stupid Not flowers and candy or even cupid What makes love love is it's simplicity We were made to know how to love implicitly Love is messy and less than perfect But let me tell you love is worth it Give me back this sacred gift,this innate ability Either let me love or please set me free" So despite the anguish and trials I might face This is what I pray for as I walk in your grace.... "If by love I am defeated each and every day Please Lord let me wake each next one choosing love still anyway."
