love,

I dont know much about love,
In fact I dont know anything about love,
I assume many things about love,
But I will tell you one thing for sure,
Love is not what popular culture
and most highschoolers pretend it is,
its far from that.

For me,
Love is setting yourself up for failure,
at least as a teeneager,
not knowing what I will do for the rest of my life,
and being so absolutely scared,
Because all the things that I love,
I cant let go,
The things I dream about at night,
the things I hold closest to my heart,
may not be able to support a family,
but Im ok with that,
I cant afford to lose this thing that Im oh so unsure of.
