I Find Myself in Words

14 Years Old

I've been asked multiple times,
"How do you know about love so well?"
The main reason is because I learned to love myself.
You can't love another individual if you can't love your whole entire self.
Truthfully, I don't know love to it's fullest ability,
but I do know what I believe love is; my version of love.
Everyones view on love is different.
Love is a powerful thing.
I got to experience just a pinch of what love is from writing.
I also learned it from heartbreak.
Now, I've never been in a relationship,
but there have been people that I have liked.
Liking them lead to me imagining a future with them,
like a lot of people do,
but with me it's different.
I don't imagine a perfect man with
lots of money, a big house, and a perfect body.
I imagine them as them.
I imagine the cheesiest romance.
Love maybe far from that,
but that's what I believe it to be,
at fourteen years old.
