Love

Love

A Poem by Paige

Love is anger, love is fear. 
Love is the muffled sound of screaming you heard through your hands over your ears. 

Love is hot tears running down your face, you always kind of liked the taste. 
Love is not having your friends over, because they will be afraid. 

Love is wet kisses from your father when he was drunk and never sober, 
That is what you thought love is.

Love is being 20 years old and afraid to say the wrong thing,
Love is toxic relationships with men who get mad. 

Love is thinking you were the problem,
Love is always waiting for the backlash. 

Love is holding your breath in fear,
That is what you thought love was. 

And just when love had lost it's meaning, 
You learned to breathe again. 

Too afraid to let someone in again, 
But it happened anyway. 

Love is pure, love is kind, love is gentle,
This is now what you know love is.

Love is definitely something one can't find rather it finds you.. when the moment is right. Lovely piece!
