Love Is

Love is a balloon

	drifting slowly to the sky

Love is a circle

	never ending

Love is the only thing

	unable to be explained by chemical formula

Love is what keeps us holding on

	and lets us let go

Love is all that can cause true joy

	and the deepest pain

Love is an unexplainable concept

	that binds human life together

Love is more than emotion

	it is substance

Love is gravity

	without it, our whole existence would change

Love is always known

	but never fully understood

Love is the drive that motivates

	that never lets us stop trying

Love is the loss of yourself

	with nothing in return

Love is passion

	the bow ending a performance

Love is a whisper

	gentle waves breaking on the shore

Love is falling randomly forever

	and standing firmly on your feet

Love is trusting

	with innocent faith

Love is holding back

	when giving in is too easy

Love is a look

	and a smile

Love is the silence

	that speaks more than words

Love is the laughter

	that can easily turn to tears

Love is the tears

	that can just as easily turn to laughter

Love is what remains alive

	when all else dies

Love is the ability to endure pain

	simply for the sake, of love

Love is the wind

	surrounding us, but impossible to see

Love is the sun

	that melts ice away from hearts

Love is the moon

	a guiding light in darkness

Love is the common theme

	tying history together

Love is two hands

	holding tightly to eachother

Love is two hearts

	dreaming millions of miles away

Love is the paper

	and its potential for beauty

Love is art

	the depth of inner emotion

Love is a Daddy

	holding his little girl

Love is a wilted flower

	picked to be perfect

Love is a dream

	and chasing it for a lifetime

Love is the hope

	that carries you away

Love is God

	God is love
