A Love Cry


A Love Cry I know I’m not in love but I know I love you I know I’m not in love but I’m always thinking about you I know I’m not in love but I’m missing you each day I know I’m not in love but I know you’re my babe So what is love? Something I can’t explain because I wouldn't know love if it slapped me in my face! They say love can be the most beautiful thing to experience but it also can be the worst thing you ever experience! So why do I want it so bad? They say stay single as long as you can because once you get into a relationship things change. So why do I want it so bad? Knowing the potential dangers when letting someone in but not caring because I've been wanting love for so long. So do I really love you or do I love what I think we can potentially have? I know you make me laugh even when 2 minutes before you called I was mad at you. I know that when I talk about you I can’t do anything but smile. I know I get down when I can’t be next to you. But that doesn't mean I’m in love with you or does it? I don’t think I’ll ever know because I don’t know how to let love in and let go. You never really know when it’s the right time to let someone in. Each time you’re assuming that this person is worth the tears and worth the effort, putting yourself at risk for being hurt. So do I really want love? Do I really want to confuse myself anymore? Do I really want to cry myself to sleep to the fact that I may never feel the love that I've been wanting for years? I’ll never know what I’ll want if I sit here every day scared to let go!
