A brief synopsis of...

What Love Is

by Tom Horonzy

 
Important.
 
First, it should be
for altruistic purposes.
Caring more for another
than caring for oneself
is very philanthropic.
 
 It is munificently being
an idealistic being,
selflessly adoring, 
some other more
 than oneself.
 
It may just be
an innate trait,
 a parcel of d.n.a.
endowed by 
Our Creator? 
 
"id est" - i.e.
Greater love hath
no man than to lay 
down one’s life 
for a friend as Jesus did.
 
Unsure
who can be as He 
choosing to do unto others 
as we would ourselves;
but Love lets us try.
 
Love is devotion 
set in motion. 
A spark enlightening
the dark in the heart
 of another.
