what is love ? rainbows and sunshine or storms and constant rain ? I don't know what love is .
I know about reciprocated  temporary love , yes . But that's not love , honestly . It's like short bursts of happiness , it never seems to last long .
so how can I love you ? when I can hardly love myself .
Saying the words but yet I don't understand the meaning behind it .
When you leave and i feel a void within me ?
When I see your face and inwardly smile ?
when I hear your name and blush ?
Is that supposed to be love ? or is it the times when I walk away from you in the middle of an argument ? or when I lay in tears at night , singing my sad soul to sleep ?
If that's love , then why does it hurt so bad ?
It's a confusing contradiction , honestly .
You're able to cause smiles and butterflies , tears and heartache too .
If this is love , then I usually wouldn't want any part of it . I've had enough hurt to last me a lifetime . But here I am , i'm still loving you .
