I used to think,
love was handed to me
on a silver platter,
untell I one day thought,
I had no love comeing to me.

But then I realized,
how important love really is.

And that you can’t just
take what you have given
to you for granted.

I then saw how much love,
Jesus gave to me no matter how bad I was-
So now I try to give love since it is naturally given
to me to give – I know.
