What Is Love?

This is a question with a simple answer. But why is it that it's so hard to understand? When you found the someone you like, you would ask yourself, "Is this Love?" And as you are thinking, you would wonder what exactly is Love. Such a simple word, L-O-V-E, can be so difficult to understand. So simple, yet so difficult...

Then, What is Love?
Love is something that cannot be measured. You can never tie it, catch it or even keep it. It's a very complicated type of feeling. Sometimes, you can feel it, sometimes, you don't.
When you love someone, it means that this person that you love is important. You want that person to be happy with you. When he/she is feeling down, you will try all ways to make him/her laugh. When you are not able to see him/her, you feel a sharp pain in your chest. Tears just flow down without your permission. You feel down all the time. Though you are smiling on the outside, deep in your heart, you are tearing badly.

Sometimes, though on the outside, you say you love him/her. But do you really love him/her. Under what type of feelings do you classify your relationships? Is it just friendship type of love? Siblings type of love? A long term partner type of love?

Once you said you love him/her. You expect the same as him/her. But what if it's just an one-sided type of love? Will you force him/her to love you in return since you love him/her? Knowing that perhaps there is someone else whom him/her love, will you let him/her go? If you don't, will he/she be happy with you? What you keep with you eventually, is not his/her heart, it's just a cold puppet that you are holding on to.

You say you know what is Love, but do you really know what is Love? Perhaps you do, perhaps you don't...
