Many have asked,
What is love?
Often, they are told,
It’s an act of the will,
Though one might have thought
It’s a really strong feeling…
At least from watching the movies
And listening to the sappy tunes.
But when it comes to reality,
The emotions fall short,
And doing the right thing
Sometimes feels wrong…
So, what is love?
I’d say love is a being…
Or a state of being…
It is both feeling and willing…
It is a powerful spirit
That upholds when the emotions are weak
And soothes when the actions are hard.
It is both knowing and doing,
And it is always passionate…
So, you may think that love is uncommon,
And you would be right.
It is indeed a rare treasure
And an awesome gifting
By the Supreme Being
That is Love.
In Him, we see that
Love is romantic,
And it is sacrificial.
Love is both a redeemer
And a fearsome judge.
Being love isn’t a piece of cake at all…
But to become love and to be loved
Are the fulfilment of all souls’ desire.
