What is Love?

On Valentine's Day, my friend asked,

"What does being loved mean to you?"

I softly smiled at the whisper

that only I could hear, so true.

"Especially patient and kind,

Still love shows up - truthful and just.

Love attempts to help and protect.

Love's beautiful, not simply lust."

I am a mother of 2 precious angels who drive me slightly more crazy

than I already am with a diagnosis of schizophrenia.

When asked "are you crazy?!" my favorite come back is:

"yes! And I have the papers to prove it! How about you?" LOL
