Love Is...

They share smiles,
and take walks.
They joke with each other,
and get to know one another.
This love is new.

They play games,
and hold hands.
They steal kisses on the sly,
and swear not to lie.
This love is innocent.

They promise always,
and share secrets.
They take their love to the ultimate level,
and know they'll never have to settle.
This love is real.

They intertwine their lives,
and make vows.
They start to fight all the time,
and have to clear their minds.
This love is hard.

They start a family,
and have a boy.
They couldn't be more proud,
and are perfect and sound.
This love is unconditional.

They sit together, an old couple,
and watch sun.
"I love you." She says.
"I love you." He replays.
This love is forever.
