Let's Just Love

This time around I just
want to love you
the way you and I
so well
know how

We are so good at this part too
this thing where we love each
other so much that we are
laughing the whole
lifetime
at
ourselves and at each other
but mostly with joy

We've done the other so many times
that thing where we can't
stand each other
or kill each other
or someone the other loves
in order to make
hurt come back alive

This time
let's just love

Grace Cooley

Be full of love for others, following the example of Christ who loved you and gave himself to God as a sacrifice to take away your sins.  And God was pleased, for Christ's love for you was like sweet perfume to him.

Ephesians 5:2
