That Dope Love Won'T Shut Me Out

What is love? That was the million-dollar question. If someone presented tenstacks of one-hundred-dollar bills before me to answer that riddle, I'd lose it all. Icouldn't say what it was, but I could most definitely describe in detail, what it wasn't.My name is Dominique Johnson, known to family and friends as Nique. I'ma trust fund kid who aspires to prove to everyone that because I was born into money, it didn't define me nor alter the fact that I'm humble. As a teen, I had love all mappedout. I knew what I would and wouldn't accept nor tolerate from a man. My idea of apartner was cut and dry, until the day I met a guy named Spencer. Everything I knew, had jumped out of the window. The rules of love had changed.His New York accent along with his swag had me smitten. I was so head overhills for this man that I took his infidelity and covered the bruises just to keep him.My unwavering love and loyalty to him had me second-guessing my own sanity attimes. After giving him five years of my life, he betrayed me in the worst way. It wasn'tuntil he gave me an STD, that I knew love wasn't shit.My motto from that day forth was simple, Jazmine Sullivan said it best, "Whydo we love love when love seems to hate us?
