What is love

Love

What is love, does anyone know?
It's the feeling inside you that doesn't let go.
It pulls at your heart strings and makes you cry,but the feeling you're
feeling you just can't deny.
It's when you can't sleep at night, cause you're feeling uptight,
It's when you feel warm and tingly inside.
To love you always have to feel pain;
You can't choose who you love;
Your head has no say in the matter.
It's all down to your heart, and it can tear you apart;
But there's no way out, even if you scream and shout.

Now when you love someone, and they don't feel the same,
That's what causes the utmost pain,
Your heart breaks in two, as love is something you can't undo;
You sit each day with your 'head in the clouds',
Wondering what on earth to do.
Why can't you heart just find someone new?
Someone who could love you too?
I'm afraid that's not the way life works,
Although occasionally it can have it's perks.
It's mainly bad luck, boring days and sadness,
Especially if love gets in the way
It doesn't always shine through the 'rainy days'.

When you love someone, and they love you,
Now that's a thing you won't want to undo,
The bond is so strong, and never feels wrong.
To experience true love you have to be lucky.
It can last forever but when it's lost, you have to pay the cost.
The heartache is neverending, you can't escape the pain.
Every day is a trip down 'memory lane'.
There's constant reminders of the love you shared.
It was someone who really cared.
The question is "how can you go on?"
Without the partner who made your two worlds one.

Your love fills your head, day and night,
You are scared and uptight,
Or happy and glad,
Angry and sad,
Or besotted and in love,
Whatever the case it's all down to love,
It can be sent from above,
Or you can be given the shove.
That's love.
