What is Love

I smiled at them

injured them with kindness?

melted cold hearts

With acts of love

4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1Corinthians 13: 4–7 NKJV

Did we not read as children?

Did we not feel their pain?

Innocence lost

Would they know true love?

If it were given to them

Would they seek to know,

other than hate?
