Don't Say

 

"I think you don't understand the difference between real love and just liking someone."
"I hope this isn't just some high school puppy love."
"I'd do anything to be with you."

Don't say I don't know what love is.
Don't say I can't tell the difference.
Don't say I haven't thought this through.

You think I haven't felt love?
I have.

I've cried because I lost someone.
I've cried because I love someone.
I've cried for someone because they can't cry.

I've whispered words of passion.
I've felt the wounds of lust.
I've felt wanted.
I've felt needed.
I've felt lost.

I've been sad.
I've been lonely.
I've been shunned.
I've been comforted.

I've fallen asleep.
I've held someone close.

You can say I haven't cried.
You can say I haven't fallen.
You can say I haven't been rejected.

You can say whatever you want.
But don't say I haven't felt love.
Don't say it...
