Learning How To Love

LEARNING HOW TO LOVE

I want a love that’s different, from every other one.

A kind that keeps me dreaming, and will never make me run.

Every woman wants, a fairytale of her own;

But it’s hard to keep believing, when only lies have been shown.

Love means so much more, than smiles and lots of laughter;

Life has us convinced, it’s happily ever after.

Maybe to most it is, but how are we to know;

How does one let down her walls, when love has left her low?

It may not be so easy, to push burdens aside;

But after all, this is life, and we should enjoy the ride.

We have to get past, every hurt we have been through;

Starting solely with finding, the strength that’s within you.
