What Is Love?

They say it's better to have loved and lost
Than to never love at all.
Though I do think they have it reversed.
Maybe the writer was doing a quip
For opposite day, who knows.
I guess that wrtier never knew,
Where pain and heartbreak grows.

It is better to have never loved at all,
Why this is I'll share with you.
The reason this is because your heart
Is bruised black and blue
It hurts more than a stab or bullet wound
Because the person that hurt you,
Was someone close to you.

Now, I'm all
For love and peace
But right now,
I'm in pieces, not sure
What to do, what to think,
More importanly,
What to feel.
If it's truly better to have loved and lost
Than to never have loved at all.
Then perhaps I'm missing something,
I guess I missed that call.
