Love Hurts?

Sometimes I wonder if love should be this hard.
If my chest should ache,
If I should have to wrap my arms around my self
Just to keep from breaking into a million little pieces.

Sometimes I wonder if I am doing something wrong.
Did I miss this lesson
My friends are having children
and I am left all alone.

Sometimes I wonder if I will always two steps behind.
What have I missed
I think I might have skipped a few years growing up,
And those moments must have been somehow vital.
