"SOMEONE THAT LOVES"

IT'S NOT THE MONEY,
OR ANY OF THE POSSESSIONS THEY HAVE.
IT'S NOT ABOUT THEIR PIGMENTATION, 
OR EVEN THEIR SEXUALITY.
IT'S NOT SOMEONE THAT STIRRETH UP STRIFES,
NOR THE ONES THAT CARRIES LACK OF HONESTY.
IT'S SOMEONE THAT IS UNCONDITIONAL,
MORE DISCERNING AND CONSIDERATE.
I'D RATHER DINE WITH HERBS WHERE LOVE IS,
THAN A STALLED OX AND HATRED WITHIN.
IT'S SOMEONE THAT'S THERE IN THE GOOD PERIODS,
AS WELL AS THE SORROWFUL AND UNFAVORABLE ONES.
SOMEONE THAT LEADS A SHOULDER TO CRY ON,
AND EXTENDS A SERVING LIMB.
SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE YOU FEELING LONELY,
EVEN WITHIN A ROOM THAT IS ABSENT.
IT'S NOT ORDINARY LOVE THAT THEY OPPOSE,
EVEN WITH THE ONE OF THE SAME BALANCE.
THEY GIVE ALL THE LOVE THEY HAVE...
ALL THE WAY TO THE EXTREME.
SOMEONE THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED AS A SQUIRREL,
GOING TO THE BRANCHES OF JEOPARDY.
JUST CAUSE LOVE BLOOMS AND MATURE IN THEIR PASTURE,
AND JUST CAUSE THAT'S SOMEONE THAT LOVES.
