what is love?

what is love?
Love is a feeling that is put into action,
When you feel loved its a happy distraction.
Love is putting some ones happiness before your own,
spending time with children even when there grown.
Love is when you smile while doing things for others,
spending time with family and memories with our mothers,
Love can be a bond between a couple sharing life,
proposing to your girlfriend and making her your wife.
Love is an emotion that comes from  the heart,
love can also hurt when it's time to part.
Love isn't easy when you think you have had enough,
love can seem so far away when some one treats you rough.
When you look in that mirror give your self a smile,
love is a sign of respect and some one who is loyal.
Love can break your heart when some one has to die,
the hardest part of feeling love is when you say goodbye.
When your heart is broken love can make it heal,
love is a emotion that is sometimes hard to feel.
Love should be in everyone to make the world a better place,
it shouldn't be a world of hate it should be full of grace.
We should think about love especially how we use it,
if you love the wrong person that's when they abuse it.
Love is when a mother watches her children grow,
the hardest part of a mothers love is letting her children go.
Just be careful who you choose to love don't get your heart broke,
some people will abuse your love that is not a joke.
Love when you can it's given us for free,
turning a frown into a smile that's what love is to me.
Now its time to go remember what I said,
love is feeling go with your heart not what is  in your head
