Love is not what you think it is.
Love is not a fairy tale.
Love is not at first sight.
Love is not the cute towels that say her and his.
Love does not always prevail.
Not always anyway.
But just because love is not perfect
Does not mean that it is not worth it.

Love is not patient.
Love is not kind.
Love does not protect.
Love does not trust.
Love does not hope.
Not always anyway.
But just because love is not perfect
Does not mean that it is not worth it.

Love is not the throes of passion.
Love is not going to be slow to anger.
Love is not forgiving.
Love is not always caring for others.
Love is not easy.
Not always anyway.
But just because love is not perfect
Does not mean that it is not worth it.

Love is the greatest of all things.
Love exceeds all things.
It is because love is not perfect,
That it is so great.

Love is abstract.
Love is not any one definite thing.
Love is different between everyone.
Love is accepting imperfections.
Love is seeing beauty where others never have.
Love is good.
Love is love and when it comes
You will know it.
Though it will be different
From the love you see around you.

Love is screaming and fighting sometimes.
Love is learning to apologize.
Love is learning to accept forgiveness.
Love is learning to accept your own flaws.
Love is healing.
It is a way to acceptance
Of yourself
Of others
Of love from God.

Love is laughing and playing sometimes.
Love is math and hard facts sometimes.
Love is laying everything out on the table plainly.
Love is saying nothing but knowing all the same.
Love is different every day.
Love is trusting someone else
And love is trusting yourself.
Love is being able to be
Every different facet of yourself
With someone else

Love is not something that can be explained.
Love is something that can be understood.
Love is something that can be accepted.
Love is not always the same for everyone.
Love is never the same in any way.
Love is not good.
Love is not bad.
Love is not.
Love just is.
