That Is Love

      Love is a strange and beautiful thing,
It spans time and space, distance is no object to love.
      You will wait forever for the one you love,
     Travel wherever you need to be with them.
   When you are in the arms of the one you love,
    That love can make a moment last a lifetime,
Yet make a lifetime seem no more than a moment.
        When love is distant it grows strong,
             When it returns it flowers.
People crave it, strive for it, fight for it, and die for it,
And when they find it, they know they are complete.
   For in the arms of the one we love is wholeness,
       Belief, completeness, passion, and security.
The one we love is someone for whom we would do anything,
          And never ask for anything in return.
It produces a love of all that person is and will ever be,
       Regardless of what that may mean to me.
           Love knows that when you are away,
That you are still loved, cherished, thought after, and missed
                       By the one you love,
           And they know that you love them back.
                             That is Love.
