What is Love

Kevin Ortiz 1967 (New York City)

February 22 


Love is being a true friend.
Love are bridges that we can mend.
Love is being kind to everyone.
Love is saying sorry for what you have done.
Love is thinking of someone when in bed.
Love is not getting their thoughts out of your head.
Love is here when you wake-up everyday.
Love is something that never goes away.
Love is always wanting to be with eachother.
Love is always being together.
Love should be forever.
