Being Loved, A Definition


To be loved we need material objects 

To be loved we need to know our worth in their eyes.

We don't know what love is

We only know what feels good.

Taking medicine doesn't always taste good but its good for you.

To be loved is looking out for one another

To be loved is having someone watch your back.

Love stops you from getting a stupid tattoo or dating that mean girl. 

Love is what holds you to others even if it doesn't taste good.
