The Word is ****

	I've been called true, new found, 
	Long lost, first, a many splendor thing.
	I have been confused for infatuation,
	Worship, sex and lust.

	And some have the nerve to say that I'M cruel. 

	I'm not. 
 
	I'm with a person from the first time
	They are held in their mother's arms.
	To the last kiss they receive.

	I may hide in the shadows of a person's 
	Life until very late.
	But I'm there. 

	For I am Love.
