What is Love to You?

It's those long hugs.

Where their arms cradle you,

Like an extra rib cage.

It's getting caught in the moment.

Like your life is a picture book,

and each day's your favorite page.

It's "Get some sleep."

Or "Here, let me help."

Not having to do it all alone.

It's feeling safe.

Two hands made for yours.

A pair of eyes to call home.

It's a kiss on the cheek,

Down the side of your neck,

Or one on the top of your head.

It's unlimited support,

Trust back and forth.

And someone you'll let hog the bed.

It's no matter what.

No matter where you go.

There's a trail from your heart to theirs.

It cannot be covered,

And it won't be ignored.

For them you always will care.
