What Is Love
Love..what is love?
Was it love when you looked at me for the first time,
And I was lost in your gaze?
Was it love when you talked to me for the first time,
And I felt I could listen to you for days?
Was it love when you laughed at my childish behavior,
And I thought I could be a kid for you forever?
Was it love when you fell sick,
And I instantly became a doctor?
Was it love when you shared a secret with me,
And I thought I would guard and protect it with my life?
Was it love when you called me up at night,
To let out your frustration…your anger,
And I was thrilled to feel that I have so much importance in your life?
Was it love when you first held my hand,
And I felt that I have tied a knot which cannot be undone?
Was it love when you slipped your hand around my waist,
And pulled me towards you…so close to you,
And I felt my heart stop, like time had frozen?
Was it love when I first felt your lips on mine,
And I couldn’t help but think if it’s for real?
Was it love when I saw you go away,
And I felt a part of me broken…wounded…was it ideal?
Is it love when I wish to talk to you every second?
Is it love when I miss every moment we spent together?
Is it love when I feel that you being with me is all that I want now?
Is it love when I miss you with each and every heartbeat of mine?
I wish I knew what love really means,
I want to call you my love, that’s what my heart feels,
So love.. I ask you,
Love….what is love?
