What Is Love?

since I was a young boy love has never changed meaning for me
it has always been a rarity
something to be fought for and written about in novels and poetry books
love can never be sold, never commodified
it is the single thing that remains pure in our environment
love and beauty go together like puzzle pieces
because what we love is beautiful
and we tend to make love under beautiful circumstances
love is more than sex
love is connection
love for human beings means no politics
no religious text
humans can write about love
they can attempt to cage love and restrict love amongst humans
but humanity can never explain love
we fear love the same way we fear death
because the inevitability of love means once you're in love
you have no choice in the matter
love is below this poem
an empty space for you to place your own words
