Undecided
What is love?
Love is undecided
Love is the most simplest things
Magnified to the extreme
Love is the morning coffee
that your spouse delivers every morning
with a wet kiss
A soft nod or hello
while walking down the hallway
from that cute boy in your chemistry class
But, love is not
Love is not an ultimatum
Choosing between her and me
Choosing between a life changing job or the family business
Love is not slamming doors
Over misunderstood words
Or meaningless lies
Love is not showing up over pity
Used as your form of absolution
Love is not fake apologies
Because you can’t admit you made the mistake
Or you refuse to talk it out
Love is not resentment
Of the ones who live down the hall
Love is not video chats, Snapchat stories
Or Instagram posts
Love is not a brand
Or a price tag
Strutted around the halls
But love,
Love is,
Love is choosing the highest good for the other person
