Love?
What do you know about love?
What? Like what the others write of.
About Pulse racing,
Hearts beating,
Eye’s meeting.
Yea, that?
I know as much as I will I guess.
I love.
Been love.
Been in love.
My reaction is not uncommon.
You sound cold, almost robotic.
“Sigh”
First love was unconditional.
Second love was not reciprocated.
Third love was covered in sweet lies
Fourth love is bound and tied.
Fifth love our eyes met drawing breath.
Six love uncontrollably left.
I know love, I may act as if I don’t. At least I try.
Why?
I just became good at goodbyes.

There have probably been a million songs written about breakups, and for good reason. They're so common and the pain is universal to everyone who has experienced it. I like your method here of a conversation between two people.
I will say it could use some punctuation to make the dialog a little clearer. Other than that, Good expression in this.

Re. Love?
What do I know about love? … practically nothing
And who ever tells you otherwise they know nothing as well.
It’s a mystery … so just enjoy it until the next goodbye
Another amazing poem from an amazing lover

hello my brother sister your soul is sexy to me just be yourself and love who loves you back me I'm cursed in love and in the flesh I had a soul mate that was ripped away from me still I reserve the last dance for her him he is the only one that fits me inside and I won't take another even if he found succor elsewhere I will hope fhe other half of my soul to return to then I'm very sad forgive my ranting it is grief come to collect a measure off me.

What a crushing last line, one that hit home.
"What do you know about love? > I asked myself that question more times than I can count. Sometimes I think I know the answer, sometimes I don't. Great write, Fia 💕
