Getting to the heart of love
Love is at the heart of our lives from the very start,
Through all our joys and sadness, love plays a special part.
Sometimes your love shines from your heart, clear for all to view,
Other times your heart feels like it is breaking in two.
On days when your heart is too painful a place to stay,
Then just seek out a place where your love can find a way.
Love will be waiting out there for you to discover,
And where love exists, so your own heart will recover.
Love is found within those moments you give in caring
Love is not meant for keeping, but is there for sharing.
Love is not for collecting, just to be stored within,
But for releasing, so that your own life can begin.
Any act of kindness will bring your love out on show,
Your love needs no reward to cause your heart to regrow.
Just open up your heart once more and then you will find,
The love in your heart starts flowing, just by being kind.
