Love is not a Poem

Love is not a Poem

Love is not a feeling

but nothing feels better than to love

and be loved

Love is not an emotion

but the emotions run wild, soar, and ebb

because of love

Love is not an action

but no one springs to action

like the one driven by love

Love is not a passion

but passionless love

is not really love at all

Love is not a science

or an art

but neither matter much without it

Love is not a good thing

or even a great thing

it’s the only thing that lasts.
