What is love

Why is love important

Why do we need it

We need love to be better people

When you are in love you get all mushy inside

You feel like your going to explode

Like your breath is taken from you

It's something we all experience

We think about the people we love

Our family

Our friends

Our girlfriends or boyfriends

do we ever know when it's true

It's true love when you lock eyes

You share souls

You join as one

You are mates

But love is also destructive

You turn bitter

You are abusive

You no longer love

You can't feel the love anymore

You drink to escape

But you don't know how much pain it causes her

She cries for help

Night after night

But she's not heard

She is not the same

She never smiles

Laughs

Or even talks to you

She is afraid

Afraid of you

Her lover

Her partner

She now talks about death

About how she wants to get away from that hell

But she can't leave you

But then that day comes when she's had enough

Enough of your crap

She packs up her stuff

Now she's left alone on the streets

You should have gotten help

Then she would've stayed

You miss her as time goes by

it seems as if you have no life

what is there to lose now

your kids were taken from you

you start to wonder if you even like women

sure they are good looking but do you like them

do you long to hold a women in your arms

long to kiss her

the short answer is, no

you've always felt as if you were hiding a part of you

that part of yourself tells you to go out and find a young handsome man

but another tells you to not do that

if you do you will be laughed at

called names

but suddenly you decide to not hide anymore

you finally say those two words

"i'm gay"

it feels so good to be yourself

your happy that you can now look for love

love is love

we will do anything for love
