Love

Love

A Poem by Arianna

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

Love doesn't last a week
like some people like
to believe
that isn't love

Love isn't arguments
it isn't screaming
and fighting
that isn't love

Love isn't jealousy
not trusting the other
looking for deception
that isn't love

Love isn't a show piece
something to be flaunted
a trophy
that isn't love

Love doesn't seek pain
attempt to solve problems
by hurting one another
that isn't love

Love Isn't Being Whipped
someone "Wearing the Pants"
someone in charge of the other ones actions
that isn't love

Love is Honesty
Trusting that only truth
is spoken and speaking
only truth in return

Love Is Believing In Everything,
true love
each other
and Yourself

Love Endures All
All Pain,
All Anger,
All things.

You are a wise young lady. All you said was correct in the poem. To love another is a emotion of forever. The best and easiest gift to give is love. A excellent poem.
