What Love Isn't

Tina Turner once asked
in wolf-wisdom
and gravel voice.
She growled,
"What’s love got to do with it?
Who needs a heart
when a heart can be broken?"

I love love, it's true.
I oft argue with you my love,
say things that hurt
down to the core
and challenge all that is you.

Some days,
you feel my love
hotter and deeper.
Some days
you question my love,
more painful and hurtful
than anything
and everything
you could ever imagine.

One of the things
I can do nothing about,
is love pure love.

I am sorry
I once again hurt you,
but I love you.
Deep down you know it's true.
If you did not,
you wouldn't
keep loving me,
no matter what I do.

Tina Turner asked
"What’s love got to do with it?"
I apologize for every time
I wanted to tell you
I loved you,
but left without
sharing my feelings.
