Love Is

Love Is

choice

the ability to choose

to think for oneself

is as individual as the individual

you wake up thinking

just a dream

it was just a dream

but this is real

this is really happening

right now

and it’s everywhere

in every eye

we see what’s happening

all over the place

and it’s hard to watch

hard to fully understand

and accept

that this is really happening

right now

people are dead

dying by the day

gasping for breath

and they never got to say

goodbye

and when this happens

when something like this happens

to somebody

and they didn’t get to say

goodbye

those left with the loss

must close their eyes

and hear their heart

beating

love was enough

even if you weren’t there

and you would have given anything to be

your love was

it will always be …

and it’s the only thing

in the world

worth saving
