Love Is...

Love can mean a lot of things,
The word has a billion definitions.
Love is when he can make you smile,
When you already have tears in your eyes.
It's when you annoy the hell out of him,
Yet you still love him more than anyone else could.
You'd withstand all hell,
Just to hold the idiot's hand.
You see his smile,
The second you close your eyes.
It's when you can't help but cry at night,
Because he isn't yours.. he's hers.
You put up with all of his bad qualities,
Because he somehow completes you.
It's if you had to choose between him and breathing,
You'd use your last breathe to tell him you love him.
Love is when he makes you shed tears,
And you still love him.
It's when he completely ignores you,
And you still want him.
When he tells you he loves another girl,
You just smile and say,"I'm happy for you."
When all you want to do is cry and cry...
The moment you're willing to make yourself miserable,
To make someone else happy,
That's love right there.

I wrote this after going through a lot of my love quotes. I realized that they all spoke the truth so I just took some of them and things of my own and make it into one big poem. I hope you like it!
