Love

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
