why do we love?

Love, why do we need it?
love, whats the point of it?
to get hurt? to fall in love
to be in pain for all of eternity
love is a strong feeling, to strong
it brings tears, it crush's you
it feels like its killing you
to the point of no end,
its like an uncontrollable lust,
such a passion for it that its like
an addiction to meth,
its almost painful when you fall in
true love, theres no getting rid
of the feeling you have
nothing, not even some one else
can make you forget the pain.
why must we have the urge
to want to love some one or to be
loved? to get torn apart? heart
ripped into a billion peices?
to feel like some ones your world?
your everything?
the only thing you want
and dream of having forever.
crying over some one who
dont cry over you?
