Love Is Dear Poem by Rian Pongratz

Love is dear to those who care
And choose your own paths
Everyone says 'I love you',
But how many really mean it?

Don't play with a heart,
Don't mess with a soul.
The people you end up hurting
Might hurt you right back

Love is dear to those who wait
Wait for love to find them first
Not a silly childhood crush
True love which causes a rush

In your mind and in your heart
You know what love's about
Holding that special one close to you
And simply saying,
'I love you, it's true'.
