Love

(thoughtful) Renee' Duval

Love is more than just
hearts and flowers and romance,
more than candlelight dinners and dancing,
more than walks in the park and moments
of intimate sharing

Love lasts beyond those initial stages
It is understanding
through the difficult times,
caring past the disagreements


It's laughing together
when things are good
or laughing together
to keep from crying


when things couldn't seem
to go more wrong
It is patience and compassion
compromise and healing
Love is forgiving
and forgiving and forgiving

Love is everything
we share together Because to me
Love is and always
will be you
