What If Love...

What if love was everything we thought it should be
You know like calling to say, “I love you,” or two-waying 1-4-3.
(Though) I still don’t know what that means but apparently it’s love
So we’ll just leave it at that and get back, but…
What if love was candle lit dinners, chocolate desserts, and hot oils
Rubbed all over your Baawdy…Slow deliberate kisses from your forehead
To your neck, through those slanted slopes, down to the path that leads to caverns
Rarely explored by such methods, yo’ check this…
What if love was warm showers, scents of lavender flowers, fingers massaged through hair
While hands massage everywhere you can reach…or touch and
What if love was so deep in fact, if you concentrated hard enough
The phone would ring and you’d be like, “Damn, did I do that?!”
“Maybe I have a 6th sense,” or maybe it’s coincidence, that love is in the air, or
What if love was long walks, on cool nights, barefoot in the warm sand
With ya love, watching the sunset hand in hand and…
What if love satisfied like a Snickers, but with half the calories and all the flavor
Of Love’s labor, more like recreation; or Re-creation of our love from past relations
Combined in time…Hours, minutes, seconds pass while we ask…
What if love was so simple like that Wu-Tang piece, or a “Complicated Melody” by India.Irie
That “we” share or at least hold tight; as if love was the bar on that roller coaster ride, with
Ups and downs, and loop de loops, excited, & nauseous, as we go through, what we go
Through for love, and love does bring fear, it brings pain, loathing, and occasionally tears
But over the years love matures and we benefit from the mutual funds of love even more.
What if love is all of these things and nothing, so we search for it blinded
What if love’s sent from above and that’s why most of us can’t find it…
What is Love?!?
