Love is…

Love is saying goodbye to your best friend

Even though you just want to hold her tight,

It's letting your loved ones go,

In the deepest, darkest night.

It's being nice to your worst enemy

And giving up the fight,

It's being the bigger person,

Because you know it's right.

It's being a good daughter

Listening to your dads lectures,

Showing your respect

It's one of those moments you capture.

It's babysitting your brother

While your parents take a break,

Or teaching him about the love

You could make.

It's seeing your sister cry

and feeling her pain,

and watch her tears

 resemble the rain.
