Love is a curious thing
It builds us up
And breaks us down
It creates and destroys
Brings happiness and sadness
Everyone wants it
Craves it
Needs it
Until it breaks you
Until you find yourself ruined in the aftermath of love gone wrong
And you begin to think that you would be better off without love
That you don't need it
Or want it
But would you really?
Would you be better without that heartbreak?
Would you have learned those lessons
Or made those same realizations about love
And life
And joy
And laughter
And sorrow?
Isn't it better to go through the sorrow and come out on the other side
Happier
Wiser
Stronger?
So that one day
You can find love again
A better, stronger, happier love
Because isn't that what everyone wants?
