heroine

We can only learn to love by loving
in this preserveness acting
listening, caring, giving,
loving, kissing, tendering

For love is a heroine
you will not underestimate
the power of obsessive love

above all else
love itself is a gift

it frees us from all the weight and pain in life
the happy memories surround as an aura
it protects you from hate
it recovers you from age

For love is a heroine
you cannot resist the desire
to be loved and to love
the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired
