What is love

    Is it eyes admiring across a crowded room,
    Is it the smile on a woman's lips,
    Is it the soft touch of my lover's hand upon mine,
    I weep, I think not.

    Is it the sweet caress of small kisses upon my back,
    Is it the tenderness shown through his eyes,
    Is it the words he whispers in my ear,
    I weep, I think not.

    Is it our bodies entwined,
    Is it the passion within our souls,
    Is it my emotions flooding my mind,
    I weep, I think not.

    It is the pain of my heart breaking
    It is the hurt of your words
    It is the tears which roll down my cheek
    I weep, This is love.

    Still with the pain comes daylight
    With the sorrow come joy
    with the hurt comes healing
    Love, whenever you can..
