Love, oh! Love We all invoke your name time after time We all claim to know or have you at some point What are you exactly? Just a feeling or just a word? Only if we always truly mean it, the world will be better Love, oh! Love You are one, yet mean different things to different folks Love between parents and children Love between siblings Love between great friends Love between married couples Love for God and love of God Love for one’s country Love for one’s pet and material properties Love for humanity Love for entertainment Love for food and wine Love for special, pricy possessions Love, oh! Love Love, yes love, you are indeed a chameleon Yes, you come in different forms and sizes We can't see or touch you, but we know that you do EXIST You are more than just a word or a feeling You are more powerful than swords and bombs You can melt the hardest of heart and mend broken ones You are an entity by yourself Hope we always give you—Love—a fighting chance! « return. |
