Love is not lust. Love lasts longer than the hour.
Love is the father, stooped by endless hours of work, squaring his shoulders at the door bending to scoop us his reason for being: "Daddy!"
Love is our mother taking us to her breast after life-threatening dreams:"Everything's alright. It's alright."
Love is the unschooled husband sacrificing his leisure time to work evenings for eighteen months to afford that hip replacement his lover has gone too long without.
Love is being with your chosen one through lean times in wealth and health, through pounds gained and lost, through children who come into the home and go out.
Love can not be conveyed or relayed to us through a song.
Love is resilient, hard, and lasts eons long.
Love is not for the weak of heart.
Love is not fifty percent, to meet someone halfway, but a bending backward forever beyond the grave.
