Love is meant for some and just not for others
Some will chase it while others hide under covers
When the hurdles approach some people stumble
Others simply jump them without a tumble
It’s not meant for ones who cower in battle
or quit too easily when slightly rattled
It’s meant for the fighters, the soldiers, the brave
Anyone willing to fight to their grave
See love, my friends, can be compared to a race
It’s not a sprint, energy can’t go to waste
No, loves a marathon, long and tiring
Its cons endless but its perks inspiring
There’s no guarantee in a happy ending
Some things break in pieces with excess bending
That’s why you must fight, that’s why you must believe
Or you’ll have more fails than goals you’ve achieved
If you’re ever in love that’s more pure than gold
Don’t let it vanish, disintegrate, or fold
Hold it close to you and treat it like treasure
Prevent its absence, savoring the pleasures
Show that someone they’re you're everything and more
And never allow them to walk out the door
That one mistake will be a fateful regret
And love for another is too hard to get
So promise me friends, when your love for one’s strong
Cherish your feelings, trust the heart; it’s not wrong
Let the love grow, let it last a few decades
Because great love doesn’t always have to fade
