If Love Is…

If love is real
there is no need
for forced sentiment
on Valentine’s

If love is true
each day will be
filled with expression
of affection

If love is deep
a glance, a smile
a gentle touch says
more than words

If love is constant
through joy and sorrow
the light that shines
warms our hearts

If love is undying
forever in spirit
our souls are bound
for all eternity
