Love is a skill; some have it, some do not.
Love happens to be something everyone should be taught.
Then there are people who love so fiercely,
it makes your soul consume all that’s given with a yearning, dearly.
They show love in such simple ways,
to help those who struggle get through their days.
Just a simple message or a once-upon-a-time thought—
these people are special and should never be forgot.
When you meet someone who was born with or has mastered this skill,
you know in your heart that this thing called love is so real.
I happen to know one of these empathetic souls.
You can see the love shine from him wherever he goes.
Just the smile on his face, or the squint in his eye,
makes me so glad I get to call him my guy!
