IS NOT LOVE

• IS NOT LOVE

  
  
  
  Is not love
  a child?
  It toys
  with my heart
  
  Is not love
  a puppy?
  It plays
  around inside
  
  Is not love
  a child?
  It is
  as innocent
  as a doe
  
  Is not love
  happy?
  Its smile
  goes through
  your heart
  
  Is not love
  caring
  When
  no one
  else does?
  
  Is not love
  sharing
  When
  you feel it
  all inside?
  
  Is not love
  pouring
  When
  it washes
  through
  your heart?
  
  Is not love
  grand
  When
  it takes you
  to the stars?
  
  Is not love
  beautiful
  When
  I feel
  the smile
  from God?
  
  Is not love
  loving
  When
  it takes me
  to its heart?
  
  A THOUGHT!
  
  If there
  is no one there
  to hold you
  Just reach
  for God instead
  
  If there
  is no one there
  to care for you
  Care
  for God instead
  
  If there
  is no one there
  to take your heart
  Give it to all
  who don't have love.
  
  Dedicated to Leo
  One love sick puppy
  milk bones
  JUST won't do
  
  Your Friend a  Poeatreeman
  
  The only pain
  I cannot feel
  Is that pain
  that has no love
  
  The only hurt
  that really hurts
  Is the feelings
  I let go
