Love Is Not Hurting


They say love hurts

when you are apart 

when you do things that hurt yourself but benefit the other

it hurts

but cheating is also pain

not being there when you need them is also pain

loving but not be loved back is pain

pain, pain, pain

that is not love

love is supporting each other

helping each other succeed

wanting what's best for each other

love is love

love is not hurting
