The Dryness of Love

What matters is not the tears you shed
It is what you have learned from shedding those tears
Is it the pain you had to endure
Is it the endurance acquired from the pain
Is it the pain itself
Makes you sit and listen

What matters is not the  emotions you feel
It is what you have learned from experiencing those emotions
Is it the feeling you have felt
Is it the feeling that was never expressed
Is it the experience itself
Makes you find yourself

What matters is not the people around you
It is what you have learned from being surrounded by them
Is it the environment that modifies who you are
Is it the affection you require
Is it the person itself
Makes you distinguishes who cares
