Love Is... Poem by Amber Tiger

Love, is not the act of providing one with a place to sleep...
Love, is not verbalizing daily how useless I am...
Love, is not telling me to turn the music off when you know how
It sooths the pain...
Love, is not rubbing in my face how unworthy of love I am...
Love, is not forgiving me for my mistakes and then constantly
Reminding me of them...

Love, is opening your home and heart to me because I'm your
Little girl...
Love, is telling me how hard you see I'm trying and meaning
It when you say you're proud...
Love, is reminding me that LOVE is out there somewhere waiting
Just for me...
Love, is saying 'Turn it up for a while.' as you see the tears
Subsiding...
Love, is simply pointing out my mistakes and reminding me to
Learn from them...

Love, is easy...
