She's 16
and she thinks she knows what love is
She sees love in those soap operas
as the battle between the protagonist and antagonist
She sees love in the fights her parents had
And the kisses between her mother and a new father
She sees love in the words of
Ill stop loving you if you do that
And in the words
If you would love me you would do this for me
Well, this is how God showed me love
2000 thousand years ago.
I crucified him
Denied him
And cursed him
But today he gives me a second chance to keep on
Fighting for him
Love is forgiveness
Patience and perseverance.
Love is the thought
That there will be someone
That there IS someone out there
And God is preparing him
That out there is the one
that will not leave
and that will not have conditional love
But in order to be that way,
he has to love God more than even me
Because he will only know love through him
She came to realize,
love isn't chocolates and rainbows anymore
But love doesn't have to based of fists
or what you will done
It is based on what God has already done
