What is Love?

Love, is fleeting

Love is madness, Love is you.

I Love you with all my heat, but yet

What am I to you?

You say sorry, like it means nothing.

Your willing to go with your friends feeling more horrible then the day before.

So what am I to think? Blowing me off like dust in the wind.

Do I meaning nothing to you, while you mean everything to me.

I already have a heart that feels no love from anyone, and I let you in knowing that pain comes easy to me.

I know that I could never have a normal relationship, yet I tried with you.

The reason I’m afraid to be alone is because I’ve been alone so long, that I know there would be no one to lean on.

I thought maybe, just maybe one day, that fear won’t come true.

However, you’ve made that fear take from; by allowing me to fall in love with you.

So tell, do we have a chance? Do I mean something to you to keep this relationship going?

Or should we end it here? Were I know that you will be the last hope.

    I really enjoyed this, especially the beginning and this simile: "Blowing me off like dust in the wind." Awesome work!
