That’s What Love Is

I suffer so that you don’t have to.
That’s what love is.
I have to help when you suffer.
That’s what love is.
I go when you need some space.
That’s what love is.
I come back when you push me away.
That’s what love is.
I forgive you when you are unkind.
That’s what love is.
I call you out when you go too far.
That’s what love is.
I let you make mistakes to learn and grow.
That’s what love is.
I intervene when the consequences are too great.
That’s what love is.
In my weakness, I am strong for you.
That’s what love is.
In your weakness, I am there for you.
That’s what love is.
