WHAT IS LOVE?

I can long to be truly happy, to feel something unspeakable, to be so deeply buried in my feelings that my heart and soul break at the thought of that feeling ever going away. Something so powerful it leaves you gasping for air. It becomes your breath, it owns you and possesses you, and nothing will ever replace it. You drown in it, but never want to be saved. A thirst that can never be quenched. Something beautiful and strong. Something that takes over your mind captures your own soul. In the moment you know you love him, nothing else in the world matters. No matter what your mind may say, you love him, and you know that. Nothing will ever change it. You go to sleep thinking of him, and wake just the same. It entrances the mind, ensnares the heart, caught in a web, but not of lies, not of deceit, of passion and prayer. Give me grace and beauty. Give me poetry, written with your soul and read through your eyes. I will have poetry in my life. Look in their eyes, and see their soul. Everything they will ever be, it is there. Through someone’s eyes you can see what they are thinking, and look into the depths of their very being, see what they cannot bring themselves to say. Die to make them happy, or live in pain for their own health. Give them everything you have, everything you are. Give them the key to your heart, allow them to break it, but love like you have never been hurt. Put your faith in them, if they truly love you, they will not let you down. They would rip out their own heart and stomp on it, to make you smile when you’re down. Wholesome and pure, it never leaves. We all have it in us, to love and be loved, so unleash your powers. Love someone with all your heart, and all your soul. Allow them to love you back. Everyone deserves love, and everyone is loved, whether or not they know it. “I love you” are the most powerful words in any language. Let them pass your lips, only once, to the one you love. Don’t play with them; don’t abuse them, say them only when that person needs to hear it. Look for the beauty in people when they cannot see it themselves. . A touch from them puts you in bliss and in those moments is when you know, that yes, you have finally found love.
Love is not a matter of the mind, but of the heart. but thats not what love is. because that doesnt even come close to descirbing it. fact is, its to good for words and trying to describe it is impossible. just find it, and you'll know

this is my first attempt at describing love. doesnt rhymedoesn'tits true and heartfelt. please vote and comment. lots of love

    i would have to disagree... but that's cuz my opinions are weird... but it's a good way to put it if it's what your opinion is.
