Love is love

Obed Daniels 1981 (GranadaHills)



What is love?
Love has no questions
no answers
no worries no needs
or unwanted reactions

Love lets you know
it is there
When it’s there
always will be
without doubting
nor guessing
No mind games
Nor testing

Love is certain!
Love is certainly certain !
it’s not wishful thinking
It’s support, trust providing
and caring, It’s giving
Receiving attention
makes love life worth living

Love is proud
Proud that love has found you
Love couldn’t be love
If our love is not true

Love is love,
Love is love but first
 you need to love you

My name is obed Daniels This is about me I had to learn as an adult as a child there were loving parents Integrity love respect To be caring Was what they taught. Although we weren’t rich We had plenty thanks to my father Who’s pockets were never empty One day my mother decided to leave my father I remember so vividly When she walked out that door I couldn’t understand What was happening I was playing Atari Eyes glued to the screen But my ears listening to them argue My mother said to me You don’t have to stay with your daddy If you want You can bring your Atari Like if that was a deal breaker Even though it was something I cared for It was my sisters and mother whom Needed me to look after To be continued more…
