Recipe of Love

There is no simple recipe for love,

No proof to show, no tests to pass.

Sometimes it brings a little sadness,

And it feels like madness.

True love doesn't start with bright sparks,

It grows when the light calms down.

When worries come every day,

And butterflies stop fluttering.

If you have never seen their anger,

Their bad habits, their strange beliefs.

Their differences and flaws,

Then love is not yet complete.

Love can feel hard sometimes,

With tears and fights.

You see each others mistakes,

And still want them to stay close to you.

After all the chaos, If you still want that them,

Through life’s storms and rains,

That’s when you really know,

Love is more than just a phase.

You hold on tight to hope

and believe the future will shine bright.

Even when you are far apart,

Your hearts stay close at night.

You face pain and struggles,

through sleepless nights and quiet tears.

Yet, if love stays strong in your eyes

then you have found the true recipe of love.
