Poem #2

Love comes in many different forms
and they don't have to be romantic.
Romance is not
the basis of love.
Love can be found in small
everyday actions.
Platonic love can be found
in the hugs friends give one another at lunch
the sharing of Oreos
the endless texts.
Familial love can be found
in the repeated ritual of saying goodnight
the brewing of tea for a cold
the affectionate teasing.
And a different form of affection
can be found
in giving someone a mix tape
of their favorite band.
