Definition of Love

You hurt me with the things you say The words you say with honesty Like when you told me I was immature for you When I was afraid to admit I loved you But I did not know how to express my love for you I matured from within my heart As you mended the pain of hurt The pain of guilt The pain of fear Eighteen years have passed We reaped and sowed with regret I cherish the love we had You showed me how to feel And I know the difference Of what love truly means It is more than the words we choose to say For real true love comes from within
