I dont know what love is,
but i do know this,
it gives you a feeling like you're floating on air,
its so hard to find,
it's the rarest of rare,
they say that everyone has a soul mate,
where is mine i can no longer wait,
i have been fooled many times,
i just wish i would have seen the signs,
plain as day,
but dark as night,
it shows no remorse for the pain it ignites,
it happens to everyone more than once in their life,
we get tricked by our hearts,
it tears us apart,
you think you have found what you've wanted,
but love so true is often times haunted,
the way you feel is not always returned,
this is when we feel the burn,
sadness takes over and leaves us lonely,
all i want is for him to hold me,
keep me warm and safe at night,
flood my life with all his might,
his heart of gold and soul of steel,
i want to finally feel the real deal,
i read all about it,
its in the books,
but i can't seem to figure out just how it looks,
where is he hiding,
waiting for me,
he can't see me either,
we're out of reach,
i am screaming "i'm right here come and save me!"
but no matter how loud i can be he still does not hear me,
so i lie here and wait for that one true love,
someday it will find me and i'll be lifted above,
to feel free at last,
theres not much more i could ask,
such a simple word love is,
but to find it's more complicating than life is to live.
