What Ain’t Love


Sex is pleasure, not love
Holding hands is cute, but not love
Hugging and embracing, love?
Kissing is so sweet, but is it love
Marriage is marriage, ain’t no love
Helping someone is compassion
Being kind is kindness
Not hurting is good, even friends don’t
Greeting on Valentine’s Day is just a greeting
In sickness and in health is a vow
Holding open the door is gentlemanliness
Putting one’s coat over a puddle is chivalry.

What then is love?
Damned if I know
Tell me if you know.
