Analysis of Love Unified

Jermaine Biggs 1986 (US)



Love
In it’s truest form
Does no harm to
A neighbor.

Through
Smooth times
And eras marred by
Wrenching labor.

Through
Growing pains
And patient
Positive change
The love here
Hasn’t switched.

And they say
all things end
 but
Not this.

In this life
The number of chances
We have to
Get it right
Are incredibly
Finite.

With this in mind
It’s a blessing
God saw fit
To put this love
In your path
To find.
