love isn't a feeling

Thursday, December 22, 2016

love is about trusting
love is putting yourself out there
spending every moment
with that one
about being
in love
or is it
what about the couple
who never said "i love you"
they walked down the aisle
vows were made
and kept
they were blessed with five babies
one of which
passed out of their arms into heaven
much too quickly
the sorrow was deep
but they pressed on
because they had to
the days were lived together
it wasn't easy
but they did it
at 88 they were old
tired
and they passed away together
holding hands
their daughter spoke at their funeral
"mom and dad
they lived love"
and you see
love can't be a feeling
because if it was
they wouldn't have survived


bc we were talking about love - and this was my definition of it

  1. They lived love, and you see, love can't be a feeling because if it was they wouldn't have survived.

  3. Actually literally made me think of a precious elderly couple I knew. They both passed away within the past year and a half, but they just oozed love- Miss Lillian was just love personified <3!
