Love In My Heart

Once upon a time, love was equivalent to sex,
But in this modern era, this twenty-first century,
What do you, think love is?
I would personally define love as:
A lovers caress, A mothers hug and a friends loyalty.

Lovers hold each other close to thier hearts,
And point of correction, love has no relation with lust,
A caress is sweet, gentle, soothing and satisfying,
Lovers make you feel owned and cherished,
He never leaves due a broken limb,
And she never leaves you due to a dried pocket,
Love stays and hold it doesnt end with death but goes beyond.

The first thing a mother does is to bond with her baby after delivery,
She feels the pains of her child from a distance of two continents,
She puts the life of her young before her own, ask the hen.

Dont tell me youre a friend and you have a loose tongue,
Or succumb your way into my hubbies bed,
You should be able to die for me as my friend,
Or so I think, just dont be the one to kill me,
Thats what I percieve as love.
