Looking for Love

Yes I am very young,
and the feeling I get scare me.
But before, I was never looking for it.
Now I am.
 
When I actually first found a love,
that even on the best nights,
I couldn't dream of.
I knew it was true.
 
Not because times were always good,
but because I still wanted it,
even when times were bad.
I wanted him through it all.
 
For many reasons though,
that all had to come to an end.
And now, yes, I am in search.
Of a love that can make me forget the last.
 
Some say I am looking in the wrong places.
Others say just let it come to you.
But none know what I feel in my heart.
The joy or pain or love or hate.
 
Maybe I need someone.
Maybe I want someone.
To take the pain away.
To make me forget.
