Love
- Action Verb
Love is a verb - an action verb, actually
Love is a verb - an action verb, actually
It’s not something
you simply feel.
You can’t gin it up out of nothing.
Love happens when
you love someone.
It happens when you love some thing.
It is doing loving
things that teach the heart
To feel inside what most of us call love.
Act like you love
some one, care for them and inevitably
You find that soon you feel love grow inside.
So, how the hell
do you “fall out of love”
If you have been doing things for one you love
Without thought of
payback for services rendered?
If you fall out of love the feeling, then, you never did
Love the action
verb to begin with. For love,
The doing kind of love, does not demand payment.
Love is ever
reaching out, not sitting back
And waiting for someone else to make it happy.
Who loves
fiercely with all heart and soul invested,
Is happy of himself and will be in love forever, full
And overflowing,
loved the best by those he loved the most.
