“What is love”
Misattributed quote says love
Is finding your weird partner and
Being weird with them.
Movies tell us love
Is recognizing our soul’s counterpoint
In another.
Books tell us love
Extends beyond class
And privilege.
Commercials tell us love
Is a diamond, a card, a
Bouquet of dead flowers.
Life tells us love
Is precious, rare, violent, painful,
Soul rending, necessary.
You made me google it! I think it’s:
when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness – and call it love- true love
I like your version best.

Thank you! I tried to make it shorter
