Poem 3

Does love equal happiness
Or happiness, love
To know this you must understand what love is
Is love between friends
Is it between a woman and man
Or two men or women
Is it between a mother and her son
A father and his daughter
Is it security
Is it emotion
Or can it be all these different things
Is happiness knowing love , or truth
Or is it to share a laugh or an experience between friends
Love presents so many questions
Yet can cover so many ideals
It can break down barriers
It can heal a broken heart
As much as the loss if it can break a heart
But to know real love and happiness
We must face the greatest challenge
We must learn to be happy and love within ourselves
Are love and happiness the same
They can be
But true love and happiness can be truly breathtaking
When they exist together
