Love

I know what it is to be loved 
To give love…..
To receive love…..
To be ‘in love’ …..
But, I can no longer love:
Love has taught me to be 
Unsure…..
Uncertain…..
More than anything love has taught me
‘HURT’
I gave all my love.
And had it thrown back in my face.
I am no longer capable of love.
I know not what love is.
