Love is...

Love to me is a commitment for an entire lifetime,
It stays with us even when we've gone part our prime.

Love to me is beyond face,  the apparent exterior,
Love to me is something deep far more superior,

Love is full of contradictions,  difficult to define
It's spectrum is vast, so tough to confine,

Love can make you laugh,  but can make you cry,
Love can make you bold,  but can make you shy,

Love means to hold on forever,  and to never leave,
Love means undying faith and belief,

Love also means to set free and to let go,
Love is never easy, that we all know,

Love can cause you immense pain,
Love has the power to drive you insane,

But love can also bring you comfort and peace,
Putting your mind and soul at ease,

Love is completely blind,  some people will say,
But love also makes things clear as day.

Be kind to yourself.

But do not indulge in self-pity.

Self-pity comes from a sense of entitlement, whereas kindness comes from a sense of empathy.

Motherly love is considered supreme,
It is commonly held in high esteem,
To some love is a sweet affection,
They feel for a sibling relation.
Often, love is intimate and romantic.
Sometimes, committed and patriotic.
For some love is for whole humanity,
It may reflect in their acts of charity.
Love flows within them like warm blood,
It submerges everything as does flood.
Love stands for trust and enormous passion,
Love also means nurturing and compassion.
Essentially all love is same and one,
An intense emotion you feel for anyone.

Love never promises you
endless happiness,
that's an assumption.



Love only promises you
a myriad of intense emotions.

Love doesn't mean
letting someone
live under your shadows.

Love means
helping someone
find their own light.

Don't call
                 dependency as love

Love is
             EMPOWERMENT.

Your love
compels me

to love myself

You will hear
many definitions
of love,

You have your own version  
once
you're in love
