What Is Love?

What is love? I have loved my aunt, I have loved my dad, I have loved my gran and I have loved my cat. But, even, I know that loving your cat is not the same as loving a boy.

This boy at school asked me out. I answered yes but now I didn't know if I really loved him.

I have loved my uncle, I have loved my mum, I have loved my grandad and I have loved my fish. But loving a boy is nothing like loving a fish.

He told me one day that he loves me. I didn't know what to say. I blurted out "I love my fish." And he broke up with me.

I have loved my chickens and I have loved their eggs but I don't know, will I ever be able to love a boy. I have loved my teddy, Joey, and I have loved my orange bedroom. But a bedroom is not a boy and, although, Joey is I know that he will always love me no matter what.

And now I'm fifteen and, still, I have only ever loved one boy, Joey. But there is one boy. He is special. We can talk, he understands me! It's great! The only thing is he's gay.
