Define Love

by Robert   Sep 12, 2004


Please define love,
is it the only gift from above?
Does it lie in a parent's emotion to child,
or is it an act that drive adults behind closed doors wild.
Is it a quest of great faith that we can't fail,
like that of Author and the holy-grail.
Is love the act of lust or a certain emotion,
For I only know now the truest of notion.
I define love as what I can feel for you,
A powerful act that remains true.
It is not in the touch of your skin,
or our nightly blend of sin.
No it is so much more that I have to need,
it is the knowledge that you will be host and teacher to my seed.
From your guidance to your choice in life,
you are the one I want as lover and wife.
The act of love is felt in every day with you,
the feeling of salvation I can only find is true.
Others may tell of love and how it is felt in their mind,
but I know not what they know nor care for I am blind.
I don't care for other's people word of distress and hate,
For I have found true happiness when you came into my fate.
I need not look any further then your eyes to find what I need,
for it is in you I will live for, die, and bleed.
let me define love and all that is true,
for it lies in your touch, your eyes, your words, my God it's you.
