What Love Is
I do finally understand what love is.
It's not blood and suffering entirely.
True love is respect, admiration,Compassion, and kindness,
Freely given by an unafraid, devoted human being.
It's not the pleasure you get from the intimacy,
It's the comfort felt when he's still there the next morning.
It's not the uneasy tension when a fight expels,
It's the strength to get over it and still be together.
It's not simply holding the door for me,
It's holding my hand and never letting go.
It's not the gazes at each other wondering what could be,
It's stepping out and taking the chance in hope hearts will connect.
So yes, I do know what love is,It's the bubbly, chilling,
unafraid feeling to be irrevocably 100% all in,to get hurt,and still be strong.
