It’s a story that’s been written
Time and time again
It’s a feeling that’s nudged artists
Past the literary edge
It’s been pictured
And scribbled
Scribed, doodled, and recorded
So many interpretations left to be sorted
Some bright and full of color
Others grey with hard feelings
Confusion, excitement, fear, lust, and more
Love is a door tied to every emotion
that’s ever been explored
We cry for love
We will die for love
We wake with hope and sorrow at the thought of love
This four letter word
Seems to make our small world go round
When we don’t feel it
We may as well shut down
How do you explain
A world centered on one word
One concept
One feeling
Leaves millions
No billions reeling
Every person so different
But all hearts see change
Searching for one thing
What we were created for
That somehow makes us all the same
its funny that a person
Can never fully show true love
We give it in bits and pieces
The rest gripped tight in our iron glove
Trying to keep some of it safe
behind our built up walls
I know that there are many beliefs
Religions, theories, and “gods”
But out of all of them that I have heard of
There is only One that operates out of love
The creator that would send his son
To the cross
To defeat the sin in us
He doesn’t look at us with judgement
He doesn’t pick us by our works
He simply wants to be with us
So he can show us how love truly works
I believe in the I Am
The God above all gods
I’m not asking you to think like I do
I’m just saying that love changed for me
When I laid my life down at the foot of Jesus’ cross
