"Love" by Jenna Oechslin

That joy, 
That peace, 
That happiness, 
The sadness, 
The knowledge, 
The respect, 
So many emotions; 
All summed up in one word...
Love. 

​

We all crave love, 
It's human nature. 
But we all crave love for different reasons. 
For him, it could be from the abuse, 
Knowing that she will be there. 
For her, it could be not having a strong male figure, 
She will have someone to lead her in life. 

​

We all crave this feeling. 
Some deny it, 
Others accept it, and want more than they should take. 

​

We don't always know how to handle love. 
We give it to those who don't deserve it. 
It hurts. 
They take that part of you, 
Use that part against you. 
After that, we don't want to give it away again, 
but we must love ourselves before others
We must know what love can do, 
How to treat love. 

​

Love must be true, 
Then it is real. 
You can't fake love, 
The lies makes love seem like something it's not
And only you can make love what it is supposed to be.
