True Meanings of Love

Some believe that the best part
of love is the beginning of love,
while feeling the joy of falling in love.
And I have no complaints for those feelings,
I enjoy love in the beginning also.
But perhaps the beginning is not the
best part of love, because the first
part of love could be better defined
as infatuation, or even lust, and we
want that to be love, but its not.
Within the true meanings of love, love
is more than infatuation or lust.
Consider this, as love progresses,
it may or may not work out as planned,
but within the process of love, those
that learn acceptance, caring, concern
and forgiveness will begin to understand
what love is and what love isn't.
Those that pursue love in sincerity
will know the true meanings of love.
