Warm Embrace

I still believe in love, pure and true,  

Not all will betray, not all misconstrue.  

Some hearts are steady, some souls align,  

When love is real, it stands the test of time.  

Not everyone cheats, not everyone lies,  

Some cherish the warmth in familiar eyes.  

But people will change, will bend, will grow,  

For the one they choose, their love will show.  

No force can keep a heart in place,  

It stays where it feels a warm embrace.  

For love is not chains, nor duty bound,  

It thrives where it’s cherished, where trust is found.  

So if they stray, don’t beg them to stay,  

For love that is forced will wither away.  

But when it's right, no doubts, no fear,  

They'll act with love—because they want to be near.
