From the Heart of a Lover

by Thomas Troso

                       Love is                                                                                                  Love is

         crossing the Nile           Love is                                             Love is                  staring directly

   in the egyptian heat                     a powerful                 a powerful                               into the Sun 

   knowing that the eyes                                        force.                                                   to feel its warmth 

   of crocodiles                             Love is                              Love is                      knowing your eyes

    will scan your movement.                   taught.               learned.                        will hate you for it.

                                                                             Love is 

                              Love is                          the mother finch                             Love is

        Love is                 respectful.        who constructs the nest             dedicated.             Love is

          forgiving those                                     for her young.                                       finding ways

                  who hurt you            Love is                             Love is            to appreciate

                             the most.                      young.          old.                   their flaws.                                                                 

                                                              Love is not an emotion.

                                                                   Love is simply a 

                                                                         lifestyle.
