I Believe in Love

by Finayon

I believe in the Love, 
who died like a criminal on the tree.
When my neighbor is hungry
I give him to eat.
When my neighbor is naked
I provide clothes for his nakedness.

I believe in Love.
Yes, I believe in love.
I don't go about maligning, criticising, or assassinating 
my neighbour or his character 
I'm no better; I don't have to prove I'm better than him.

I believe in love
I know I'm only human.
I do my best and let divinity do what I cannot do.

I believe in love.
You smile at me
And stab my back; ain't love.

Love wins always
Love will win again
You call me a friend
Yet you are my worst enemy.

Love will never retaliate
Nor take revenge
So, I believe in love.
Love will keep on shining and shining
Like the morning sun.

I believe in love.
I believe in kindness.
I've been shown kindness
By the death of the Love on the tree.
Therefore, I choose to love.

Love is not a feeling.
Love is not a look, nor is love charm.
Beauty will fade away
Charm will go out of fashion
But love is forever.

I believe in love.
This world is filled with negativity and wickedness
But love is very sacred.
Love may be misunderstood, resented,
Abused, refused, ostracised, criticised,
But love will always win.

Love is God's business.
God is the source of love.
Love can be expressed physically,
but there is more to love.
God united the first man and woman 
Because of love.

Love is a universal language.
Singers sing about love.
Poets write about love.
Movies are made about love.

Somebody said, "Love is all we need."
Another person said,
"Love is not enough".
Just like some vehicles run on petrol,
Others run on diesel.
So is love for different genders.

Men run on respect.
Women run on love.
Therefore, there is more to love,
Than what we see, feel, and hear.

Love is not an illusion.
Love is not 'packaging.'
Love is not fashion or trend.
Love is not selfish.

Love is about adding value to humanity.
Love is about showing kindness to others through divine power.
Love is sacrifice.
Love is a decision.
Love is commitment.
Love is passion and action.

Love is to show kindness even in your low moments
to the rich, the poor, 
high, or low in the society
Free or bound,
Love is for all.

I believe in love.
Love knows no colour, tribe, language, or race.
Love cares for all
without expecting anything as a reward in return.

I believe in love.
When I was sick
Love cared for me.
In the hospital bed
Love never abandoned me.
I was in prison
Love came for me.
Homeless, Love sheltered me.
A nobody
Love made me somebody.
I still believe in love.
