"Love is ...giving" - just a fact

Love to be love must be something
going out of oneself for the other
no matter how far it can go
no matter how difficult the way
no matter what time it is
for love is eternal and endless.
The giving need not be too big,
it can be just a smile to cheer up
a lonely, sad and isolated heart;
or just a little tiny kind word
to lift up the spirit of a downtrodden.
Love which is giving is a spark of light
in this dark world and selfishness.
Love which gives out is healing
the times lost in unloving ways.
Love gives and receives more
in wondrous state of contentment
only the true one who loves knows.
Each evening, I only ask one question,
Did I give someone my act of love today?
And as I lay down my tired body to bed
my mind and heart is at peace
with my God who is love.
