LOVE
You can’t go searching for it
like a lost set of keys
or the other black sock
it’s not just sitting on the tip of your tongue
or just a random thought
it’s not a probably, a maybe or a perhaps
and it’s not anything you can beg for, or steal
you just have to leave it all up to fate
and not everyone is lucky enough
because for some, it comes too late
but when and if it does arrive
It’ll be the only thing in this life
you’ll {find} that is REAL.
LOVE

Like my mom...
I felt I was reading my mom's poem.
Because this is how she explained love to me when I was younger...
and it feels great revisiting that advice through your poem.
Very thoughtful and lovely writing!
Thanks,
