Analysis of To know the meaning of love

Andre Glasco 1960 (Birmingham)



To know the meaning of love

To know the meaning of love is to know the emptiness with it, to feel the hurt of being alone, sad and lonely cause nothing inside you feels no longer alive
To have avoid that nothing seems to fill,
A sharp pain that causes tears to fall from your eyes with no physical altercations,
A helplessness feeling the makes you feel you no longer exist, that’s when you see the selfishness in yourself and start to do any any everything to take away the pain of loosing and missing what you’ve had, when you’ve made a choice to hurt the one that loved you and you find out to late you made the wrong choice a come back calling it a mistake and you can’t erase it,
Believe me I’m saying this cause I almost didn’t see what I was doing but was BLESSED in time to see that love is every day work, every day work even with overtime work cause the first time you feel you’ve done all you gonna do to show you love someone is when you let yourself down and when you force love out of your life it’s done and starting over is never ever gonna be the same and that’s when you know the true meaning of love
