Understanding Love...
Understanding Love...
The first time I said ‘I love you’
I believed it
Because what else could explain my nervousness
Whenever you neared me?
Obviously it wasn’t the fact
That I hadn’t spoken to girls earlier..
The next time I said ‘I love you’
I believed it
Because what else could explain my joy
Whenever you messaged me?
Obviously it wasn’t the fact
That I was lonely..
The next time I said ‘I love you’
I believed it
Because what else could explain my anger
Whenever I saw you talking to another guy?
Obviously it wasn’t the fact
That I was filled with insecurities..
The next time I said ‘I love you’
I believed it
Because what else could explain my want
To spend every minute of every hour of every day with you?
Obviously it wasn’t the fact
That I didn’t know to give myself company..
The last time I said ‘I love you’
I meant it
Not because you did anything
Not because I felt something..
Make me nervous, make me possessive,
Make me happy, make me sad
Or don’t make me feel anything..
I will love you because I choose to
I will love you because you chose me
I will love you because we deserve it.
