The Truth Behind Love

A love is built on honesty
Not just that
But other things too
A relationship builds day by day
No one to mess with it

Here’s the truth
Love isn’t something you find right away
It finds you
All the time
The truth behind love is
It’s never really there
Until one day you found your lover
The truth behind love can be a heart breaker

Truth number 2
Is he loves you
He will stay with you
Even if you guys take a break 
From one another
If not
He doesn’t really love you
Maybe he never did

So the truth behind love
Can be ironic
No one really can know
Why it is so ironic
Is there really an explanation to it all
We can wonder until we really do know

But the truth behind love is painful and sad
No one wants to hear it
But yet they do
I never would have told you
If you never knew
My story behind the broken heart
That lies inside of me
