Defining love

How to define love? It seems impossible. It has nothing to do with butterflies and intense passion, no, it's what's left-over after the passion and the butterflies cease to . It's the feeling that lingers when the make-up comes off and the true side comes out. It's what brings tears to your eyes at the thought of another, not because of their appearance or a sweet word said, but because of the affect they've had on your life. Love. It is completely confusing, yet nonetheless completing. For, when two truly love one another, nothing else is necessary. Life is simple within that love, within that bond; life is complete.
