WANTING LOVE FOREVER

 

Some people stay together, some don’t even try

some just don’t know how to, some just don’t see why.

They don’t believe in love, because someone broke their hearts

now they say goodbye to love, before it even starts.

 

But we believe in Forever, loving like we do

giving love to each other, in the things we do.

Caring about each other, more than just ourselves

hands and hearts together, wanting love forever.

 

They wonder how we feel this way, after all the years

still in love with each other, with more laughter than there’s tears.

They find it hard, to believe, we can be this way

maybe they just never had, a love that came to stay.

 

But we believe in Forever, loving like we do

giving love to each other, in the things we do.

Caring about each other, more than just ourselves

hands and hearts together, wanting love forever.

 

Perhaps if they found someone, who could mend a broken heart

that very special someone, then they would never part.

They would be loved by someone, for more than just a day

then maybe too they would know, a love that came to stay.

 

And they’d believe in Forever, nothing else would do

giving love to each other, in the things they do.

Caring about each other, more than just themselves

hands and hearts together, wanting love forever.

lovely loved it

Out of all the many Four letter words I am aware of, I only like four… LOVE, LOVE, LOVE and LOVE Your words are astoundingly lovely But they encompass Only one facet Of love… Recall the moment you were born Your mom was your unknown But most loved love Well done as you share Your love with all, Without love The world There would be no wherewithal. LOVED BY ONE AND ALL
