I thought love meant
Butterflies in your stomach
Your heart skipping heartbeats
Or a faster rate for that matter
Being mesmerized by your significant other
Watching movies together
Late night conversations
Stealing kisses every now and then
Staring at them and get caught looking
Cuddling and holding each other's hands
Enjoying the moment even when the future is scary
But love came out to be different from all of that
Love is letting all of those go
When I thought it meant everything to him
When all of it meant nothing at all
When I thought I was his everything or even "something"
But no
I am nothing
What we had was nothing
What I thought we felt
Turns out to be what I felt
I
No "We"
No "Us"
None
