Love is amorphous, it means many things.
The kind you experience? Reflects what you give.
Ludus is playful, flirtatious and fun.
Reversion to childhood — oft reveals the one.
Agape is selfless; improvement in kind.
Without expectation. Unconditional bind.
Pragma — enduring: the fruit of a seed.
Lovingly tended. Watered and seen.
Storge is familiar, connection of kin.
Timeless, unbounded — old beginnings.
Philia, affection. Eros, romance.
Mania, obsession, invites imbalance.
Self love is Philautia: knowing your worth.
May love’s compositions, within you be birthed.
