Love is…

It’s nothing like the same as lust
More about trust than basic thrust
It’s also not infatuation
Nor emotional strangulation
It’s not about the things you lose
But more about the life you choose
It boosts you up when you feel low
It’s everything you want to know
It wraps you up in cotton wool
Makes your heart feel very full
A sudden smile when you’re alone
A certain thrill if you hear the phone
It brings the sun up every day
It will keep you working without pay
It’s everything you need to live
It’s a perfect reason to forgive
It can’t be bought it can’t be planned
It’s something you can’t understand
It can lead to pain or joy or strife
In fact you could say
It is life!
