It’s not a weight on our shoulders Or an anchor, heavy on our feet Not a ****** victory over others Nor a weakened or beaten defeat It’s not a maze of constant worries Or an indecipherable scribble in our minds Not a rulebook for our partners to follow Nor a road full of stop signs It’s not a game of lust and cheats Or one image meant for all Not a series of conditions ‘Only if…’ Nor split, withheld, or bought It’s not sadness, tears or heartbreak Or using one another for gains Not ridiculous expectations to be forced on us Nor emotions to be smothered or chained It’s as natural as the breath we take To give it out is simple and plain It emanates from all our souls within A light within us always untamed Take a moment to truly find it now Be still, be calm, be true For when you do you’ll realise how easy Unconditional love is within you

Simply, Love
It’s not a weight on our shoulders Or an anchor, heavy on our feet Not a ****** victory over others Nor a weakened or beaten defeat It’s not a maze of constant worries Or an indecipherable scribble in our minds Not a rulebook for our partners to follow Nor a road full of stop signs It’s not a game of lust and cheats Or one image meant for all Not a series of conditions ‘Only if…’ Nor split, withheld, or bought It’s not sadness, tears or heartbreak Or using one another for gains Not ridiculous expectations to be forced on us Nor emotions to be smothered or chained It’s as natural as the breath we take To give it out is simple and plain It emanates from all our souls within A light within us always untamed Take a moment to truly find it now Be still, be calm, be true For when you do you’ll realise how easy Unconditional love is within you
