Love is love
Love is always more and never enough
Love is hate, but never really
Love is consent
Is women
Is men
Is everything in between and beyond
Love is one, many and none
Is all the colors we know, and some more
Is the known and the unknown all at once
Love is not fear
Not loneliness
Nor hatred
Not restraint
Nor pain
Not judgment
Nor discrimination
Or at least it shouldn't
But some people fear what they don't know
Don't understand
Won't try to
They discard
Hate
Crush
Destroy
For this is all they know
Perhaps love isn't for them
Perhaps they don't know how to
They fear to
They were hurt by
Felt misunderstood by
Perhaps they don't know better
Yet
Yet
I wish for a world where colors aren't feared
Where love is loved
Is everything and everyone
No matter what thing or what one
A world ruled by love
By variety
By diversity
By options
By acceptance
By togetherness
And it all starts with me.
With you.
With them.
With all
For all
Because of all
Love is all.
Together.
