Meaning-less? Emotion

You found me.
Sharp and messy like broken glass,
Thrown too many times.
But quickly, you secured me,
Made me bubbly once more.
Instead of crying, I laughed…
I smiled.

A gear shifted inside me. 
Suddenly, life was all about you,
Never leaving my mind.
I was always happy with you.
Even when I was down,
“Baby, it’s alright.”
Up and up I went.

A high, intoxicated feeling.
But not one filled with rage,
Rather warm, melting love.
Love…
An emotion I thought was stupid.
Just a word.
It meant nothing to me.
But now, 
Love is you and I.
Love means everything to me.
