Love was born with space and time
Fire forged, spiritually divine
Love resides behind eyes, focuses gaze
Assuring, always
Love holds on until the tear of tides released
Until requited knows no peace
Love sees no infirmity, wrinkle, lines
When winds grow cold love pines
Love is strongest when challenged by death
Battles relentlessly until ousting its breath
So Love is forever, sees all possibility
Of expanding itself into infinity
Loving rare lovers hard to find
More than skin to skin intertwined
Love as a deity has a legion of names
Infinitely revered, in all cultures claimed
