Crawling Towards Love

Do I understand what love is?
Have I fallen into it before?
Convincing myself I knew not
Possibly I tried in my youth

Now younger days have passed me by
Still I know nothing of love
Walking towards it
At a mere crawl

I write pages of it
But all turn to a scrawl
Giving of myself, selfless to be
Can I love another past the faults
Like I tried to love you all

Wanting to be open inside
Barren heart fill up with joys
Oh, how I try, then I feel to die
Will I ever feel love? 
Attempt to make you smile

Do I really want love?
Or just the idea if it?
