For days I have wondered what love meant to me
Tons of my time was spent doing research
Lost sleep thinking about what it really was
Turned to God to show me a sign

I would go outside and see couples
Holding hands, sneaking kisses to each other
Laughing and being carefree
But why does the love I know make me feel empty?

The only love I knew was the one that made me cry
The one that made my heart break into tiny little pieces
The one that made me numb
Staring into the air but not seeing anything

The love that I knew about was
The one I gave away
And only received pain
