Love or Perish
Love is a giving of self
I give what I have,
My time, my money, myself
Like the cup full of water
I water the gardens around me
Like the rays of the sun
I feed the world below
Love, it reaches high and it
Sinks low, to the ocean flo’
But, it goes deeper than that
Love reaches down and scratches the dinosaur’s back
And it shoots up
Like a person who hit snooze and is now late
It transcends the state
It’s destination is Heaven’s gates
Love, and now y’all know what it takes
Love or Perish
A lot is at stake
“Our only responsibility is to love. Whether we are loved backed. Whether love becomes productive in ways we can measure, this, is not our business. The nature of love, is to love.”
