What Is Love? © Moi.

What’s it like to fall in love?
Is it the spell one falls upon
Casting people into a mindless trance?
Or is it the feeling two people receive whilst embracing each other
Holding on as if an inexplicable force brought them together?
When the dark sky casts a shadow of evanescent light
That forms a protective barrier among human souls
The moonlight brings upon simplicity and unidentified beauty.
Some say love is a splendid, beautiful thing
While skeptics consider it a moment of sacrifice and betrayal.
But doesn’t every human emotion or feeling acquire despair
Pain and agony that only life can surely bring?
If romance were to be nothing but bliss and passion
Wouldn’t the fire that sparks so willingly soon fade away?
I believe love is a simple testing of fate
The one spectacle God has written on an empty slate.
Love is what one makes of it
For there is no one true answer or sensation describing it.
Whether it be a simple hand hold, a peck on the cheek
An ardent embrace or 220 minutes spent on the phone each week
Love simplifies all of these emotions.
It may mean one expression to the French
And another to the Greeks
But despite the differences among the world
Love is a universal concept.
A deep feeling of affection and solicitude toward one human
A sense of underlying oneness
Can make one feel as if they are floating on air.
Remember that while you may not express love or feel remotely loved
Love follows everyone wherever they may go.
So when you say "I Love You" to someone special
Always mean it within your heart.
Because love is simply an irreplaceable token exuding life as it surpasses human hearts.
