Love for No Other Reason than to Love for the Sake of Love - (Song/Poem Attempt #45 From A Mother and Her Shattering Son)

I know when to take it slow

And when to run at the speed of light

I know when to be patient

And when to act without thinking

I know when to smile

And when to cry

I know when to think with my heart

And how to always love

But I don’t know how to love like you do

When you love for no other reason than to love

When you love for no other reason than to love

For the sake of love

I know how to love when I’m loved

But you love even when you’re hated

I know how to love when the sun is shining

But you love even when the storms roar

I know how to love when I’m happy

But you love even when you’re in pain

I know to love when everyone loves

But you love when no else loves

How do you do it

When you love for no other reason than to love

When you love for no other reason than to love

For the sake of love?

Teach me how to love when I’m hated

Teach me how to love in dark times

Teach me how to love when I’m cold

Please, my love. Please teach me, my love

Teach me how to love for the sake of love

The song that inspired this song/poem is Making Love Out of Nothing at All by Air Supply. It's an oldie but still a good song.
