Love?

Can the heart die if it is not loved?

Or does it just matter if it loves?

Will it be worse on you if you love--unreturned?

Or if you never love at all?

If you go your whole life without loving, will your heart be great because it has never known pain?

Or will it be miserable for never knowing love?

If you don't love, will you never know how to be happy?

Or will you be happier 'cause you never got your heart broken?

If to be happy is to love, and to love is to suffer, is suffering happiness?

Do we all enjoy pain?

Do we spend our whole lives looking for the one person who can make us the happiest, just to break our hearts the worst?

What would be the greatest pain, to be in love for years, and then have your heart shattered?

Or to love and NEVER have that love returned?

Is it really love at all if it's not returned?

Or is love measured by fullness, not reception?

Is there such thing as true love?
