Love

What is love? 
A question that we often faced 
But when unmasked was judgement and hate 
I wanted to believe that our love was true 
But in our quest for this euphoric feeling left us without a clue 
I wanted to give you my heart in return for yours, but if we knew that the end of us was the cost we would have never moved forward 
We were both damaged 
So the mangled and shattered remains of our past is all that we had to offer 
Why would you want that? is what crossed my mind 
But then I realized the beauty that was held inside 
I could see past the scars and broken pieces left behind as I thought you did the same when you gazed into mines 
But if we knew then what we know now theses false pretenses would lead to our demise
