Love Poem by Malory Joyce

My thoughts were convinced that love
shouldn't be so hard to withhold,
if love existed within the relationship
then we were bound together.

I thought of love
as this beholder
that held our hands together,
A grip so powerful
not even a temporary hatred
could apart us.

but love was no beholder,
We humans are the ones who
must hold each other together
and keep love meaningful.

Love does not create,
we create love's existence.
