If we knew

I dun quite understand
I dun see, just how dis works
why is love so painful
and how cum it hurts

why are we so vulnerable
to things inside our hearts
it's like a big secret
we dunno until it starts

if emotions take ova
then how do we know
if we truly love them
or we dun wanna let them go

we could just be lonely
and den ruin our whole life
if you dun love them
well it wouldn't feel rite

sum people find it hard
hard to understand
why we can't breathe
wit nothing not a hand

so if we could understand
would things here be better
if we were truly sure
would we love them forever?
