TRUE LOVE

TRUE LOVE IS UNCONDITIONAL AND UNWAVERING 
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE A PAYCHECK TO CONTINUE 
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE A COLLEGE DEGREE OR A NEW CAR 
TRUE LOVE CANNOT BE BOUGHT OR RENTED OR SOLD 
IT DOES NOT FADE AWAY OR ALTER INTO SOMETHING LESS 
IT IS NOT DIAMONDS OR JEWELS OR A FANCY CAR 
IT DOES NOT CLING TO YOU IF YOU OWN A MILLION DOLLAR BALL TEAM 
OR PLAY FOR ONE 
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE A LICENSE OR TAX SHELTER
IT DOES NOT LEAVE YOU WHEN YOU LOSE IT ALL
TRUE LOVE IS UNCONDITONAL AND FREE
IT IS THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE THAT ONLY COMES FROM PARENTHOOD.
