Correct me if I’m wrong, but

Isn’t love a FORCE?
Unable to be commanded,
demanded, or swayed
Unable to be taken away.

I heard love is BIGGER THAN THE PERSON FEELING IT.
I heard love can be invited in,
But not dictated in how it chooses to express itself.

I heard love is like lightening;
It is UNPREDICTABLE.
it rolls in like thunder and is IRREFUTABLE.
It is CONDITION-LESS.
Love, from what I’ve heard, is RADIANT like the sun.

I heard love is FREE;
Unable to bought or traded.
Certainly, unable to be sold.
Love, from what I’ve learned, is not to be treated as a substance or commodity.

I heard love is BOUNDLESS.
I heard that borders are nonexistent.
I heard you can’t confine love.

Love cannot be turned on as a reward,
or turned off as a punishment.

I understand that love speaks out for justice,
And it protests when there has been a breach in
moral uprightness.

Love points out the consequences of hurting and hating oneself and others.
and It allows room for pain, and anger to be released…

That is what I’ve come to know love to be.

Now i just need somebody to come and love me.

Thank you,

Eli
