Finding Love

How long does it take to fall in love?
A minute, an hour, a day,
Weeks, months, years,
for that special someone to
steal your heart away?
How do you even know if its really
love or just a physical attraction?
What does real love feel like?
And should that person break your heart,
shatter your hopes and dreams,
How long does it take to get over them?
How long does it take to kill the pain?
Hours, weeks, months, years.
How long will you cry those empty tears.
When you know no one else will do,
How can you search for someone else?
How long does it take to fall in love again
A minute, an hour, a day, months or even years?
If you find another special someone,
Will it feel the same?
Can you trust another with your heart?
How do you know they too won’t
shatter your world apart.
Maybe you just harden your heart.
Don’t ever let anyone else completely in again.
How can you trust,
Why would you want to feel?
Risk putting yourself through the pain again.
