Feeling loved when my dog greets me at the door

Feeling loved when my dad tells me I'm the favorite

Feeling loved when my mom says she is proud of me

Feeling loved when my niece gives me kisses on my cheeks

Feeling loved when my parents surprise me with something new

Feeling loved when my parents give me money without me asking

Feeling loved when I come home and my favorite meal is on the table

Feeling loved when my boyfriend takes me to get food out of no where

Feeling loved when they say they would be nothing without me

Feeling loved when I wake up to sweet text messages

Feeling loved when I get complimented by strangers

Feeling loved when someone holds the door open for me

Feeling loved when people applaud me

Feeling loved when you fall down and someone helps you up

But sometimes love

HURTS
