Touching is not loving
Talking is not loving
Hugging or holding hands while walking
is not loving
Kissing is not loving
Working is not loving
Living or keeping the coffee perking
is not loving
Loving is not when you're crying
Loving is not when you share
Loving's not thinking of dying
Loving is just when you care

Caring enough to touch
Caring enough to talk
Caring enough to hug
Enough to hold hands when you walk
Caring enough to kiss
Caring enough to work
Caring enough to live
Enough to keep coffee a'perk
Caring enough to cry
Caring enough to share
Caring enough to die
Caring enough just to care
