Loving and Being Loved

Loving and being loved are two very different things,
Being loved is a deep craving in all human beings.
But sometimes, you have to choose either to be the one to love,
Or to be the one to be loved.


He loves her like his eye,
But she says she doesn't feel anything for him and she won't lie.
He adores her and worships her like a god,
Like his life is tied to her with a strong cord.
She says he is not her kind,
And it is better for him to take her off his mind.
She says her heart longs for someone else,
The someone that is in love with someone else.
He made her understand he would do anything,
And he is ready to give his everything,
But to her, he means absolutely nothing.


I don't understand what more a person could dream of,
When you have someone who loves you and can die for you.
You keep shunning him off,
And keep going after someone who gives no shit about you,
Oh what a big shame,
People who do that always end up having themselves to blame,
Follow not only your heart but also use your brain,
And enjoy the true love showered on you like rain.
By giving him a chance, you are giving yourself one,
You will be glad you did, after all is said and done,
As his love brightens up your life, like the shinning of the sun.


This is my submit,
It feels a lot better to give the chance to be truly loved,
Than to live a lifetime with someone else, fighting to be loved
I would rather chose to be loved any time,
Than be the greatest fool for love of all time.
I would rather be someone's hero,
Than present myself to another as a zero,
I would rather mean everything to a person,
Than suffer meaning nothing to another as a lesson.
No one expects you to love him at first sight,
That's not what makes love right.
Love is not just a feeling or reaction,
It is a decision.
