Love
Oh, how truly powerful it is.
When someone says they love and trust you,
It makes you want to rise,
To become the best version of yourself for them.
At least, that’s how it feels to me.

When I love, I love fiercely,
But my love is always true.
When I say, “I love you,”
It’s with every fiber of my being.
I love you as a person,
Your flaws, your quirks, your whole self.
I love you at your lowest,
And I love you at your highest.
Heh, I’m starting to sound like God.

I’ve changed for people before,
Molded myself into someone I wasn’t,
Why? Because I believed they loved me.
But now I see they love me not
I love myself more and more each day,
And I love God just the same.

He loves me, cares for me,
And always forgives me.
The things I used to do
Now they feel disgusting,
Not because they’re cringe,
But because He loves me.
He doesn’t approve of those things,
And neither do I.

The bond I have with God is built on love.
See, I told you it’s such a powerful word.
It’s not overused; it’s misused.
People confuse lust with love
And mercy with compromise,
But God’s love is pure
He loves and forgives,
And so do I.

I love you, I truly do.
So little birdie, take these wings and fly.
Be free in the Lord,
Because with Him,
You can truly be yourself,
And never be told any lies.
