You will never truly know
what love is...
Until the day,
Someone breaks
your heart.

Tell me who he is..and I'll kick him in the balls for you

And that is the god awfull truth now isn't it.
-
as always you inspire so many images for me;
absence makes the love ferment into a noxious alcohol?
oh julia where art thou? you have strode on my heart through shatter glass, raped my sanity, and left me lonelier than i thought possible...
we are but broken hearts to our fantasies!
thanks for sharing!
your words ring so true! words of vodka...
-
very true and i know best lol iv had 6 that hav broken my heart
-
Interesting
I tend to ask ppl about this question...many reply "its like being in the clouds or butterfly in your stomach"...then I stop to think...butterflies have a short life span, even if they are beautiful or unique, their life will cease to exist...and then I realize..love has the life span of a butterfly...I really like it...This piece speaks truth and not just beautiful words... -
wow your words were never penned truer!
well done,
Blessings always

Although I don't totally agree with your point of view, you expressed it well. Short an sweet. It seems to me it is another way of saying "You don't know what you have until you loose it". I like your way better.
-
Amen! Short, simple, and completely true ... Well done!
-
deep..
and true, but what about the opposite? like not being aware of anything else in the world except the object of your affections, the sleepless nights?, the 'living' strictly on love, food has no meaning..the scribbling lil silly notes on everything? telling anyone who'd listen to you about your love? yeah.. i think the heart feels that just as powerfully.. excellent write sweetie!
-
in a few lines you have said your heart
for this is true.. if you have ever loved
and your heart was broken.. you know you had loved
well penned hun as always hugs Angel♥
-
This is a sad,terrifying but true fact. Love is then defined by how you feel without that person. That unreal ache for them when they are gone...the nauseating feeling of them not being there anymore. Great 5 liner.
-
This is really good, and so very true.
-
Nice peek into your tender side Miss Thang I won't tell anyone.. lol
-
truth....
and heartbreakingly so
-
Nice take on the prompt! 'Tis a melancholy write. I hope your personal experiences are not the foundations of this write. I would not wish that upon anyone. Nicely penned. Good luck to you in the contest!

-

-

-
I think there are
other ways of knowing...
just a little bit of sour bitterness on the back of my tongue.
-
-
there are lol...thats what I came up with at the time I had a conversation with my father and he said he never realized how much he loved my sister until she was gone..then I wrote this. lol
