An Egocentric and yet Selfless babbling of idea…

Heres my idea of love, Tell me and share with me your ideas of love. Make it as long as you please, I just want to know what love is..

What is love.

Ive been through this game enough to know that I don’t believe in love.

There’s only been two people, That I thought I was in love with. Now I’ve loved plenty, I’ve said it, Ive done, I’ve made it. But as far as being in it…Only two. One told me to fu*k off , Dropped out of High School, got pregnant , And I never heard from her again. She could be dead for all I know, and It doesn’ bother me. The other, Would never love me back, because the reasons she would have loved me, were the limitations. So it was a perpetual existance of friendship. So what is that.

Thats not love, thats not friendship, thats being used and using. Thats the apple needing the seed to carry on, And the seed needing the apple to carry on. Its a joint soul progression, without the hearts being attached. It’s the few seconds before the nuclear holocaust begins, The time frozen by the camera that will never get developed, That simply is the last drop of water that overflows the sink, and the last spec of dust that breaks the back of so many. It’s not love. It’s the deteration of lone survival. In the end we all end up alone, And our whole lives we prepare to be with others. It’s right and it’s wrong, but it’s not love.

Love is painted by the paintbrush of movie directors and the art is still life pictures of superstars locked in an embrace. Love ends happily ever after, And I’ve seen far too many people die without either of those. So tell me, How can love be real, if its just the images on a movie reel. I’ve felt sh*t , sure, But I had those very same feelings when Rhett Butler told Scarlett “There’s one thing I do know… and that is that I love you, Scarlett”, Then a few undetermined amount of minutes later saying with such confidence, after hearing his beloved Scarlett cry in confusion to his name. “Frankly My Dear, I don’t give a d*mn”

Exit Rhett, Enter me. Subsitute me with him and would I be able to say the same. No, I wouldn’t. So what is love , but the limitations. The things you DON’T do for someone to prove that you do care. And that scares me. That makes me scratch the hairs on my head, Because its what you do that proves you love someone right? But then why cant you do this or do that, But you gotta do that, to be in love. But you can’t do that, And by that I mean, adultrate, Look at another, Speak anothers name, See others, Call others, Be with others, Laugh at others jokes, How is that love.

Love is freedom, Love is trust, But what is it really, but the locking of each others mind, until there is nothing but the ending of time. Till death do us part. Im dead , My brain has shut down. Now what. The only thing I ever see is you, Is your name, Is your face, Is your jokes, Is you. But thats not love, Thats control. Thats the binding of my soul to earth, After its departed and ready to go onward. Thats not love.

Real Love is a dove flying above the covenant of the lost cove, As an elderly lady cooks on a log stove, To apease herself, Not her man. Love comes from inside first, Its impossible to love, when ya hate yourself. As the slow secondary guitar plays a slow meleody that is the backtrack of your life, You think you feel love. But thats just ya mind, playing tricks on you again.

See I’ve been in love two times. And both of those, ended with broken hearts, So my heart has been broken in two then in four. How will I ever love again. , The peices are still scattered about the floor, and my contacts are at your house….How will I ever know what love is again. You took my heart, and my sight. Now thats a sight. Four stars, critics love it. I read in the paper the other day, A retro review for Titanic, And my local critic said “Now thats love”.

All I can do is sit.

What is love, baby dont hurt me, dont hurt me no more.

That’s what love is….Love is pain. Love is the heartbreak. Love is the determental afterthought , Love exists soloey after its demise. So please, go ahead and break my heart again, I miss that feeling of love, Darling. Break it, Break it across your knee and break with a hammer. Shatter that b*tch. Grab a mallet and compose your work of symphonic art titled “Dust of a Heart”. I want you to make my heart not exist, so I can feel that love forever, baby.

Show me love. Again and again, Kill me baby, Bury these bones And stare at my gravestone. Everyday. Love me. Again. My baby.

im not old enough to have experience love yet. And everywhere i see people, who for some reason, cant stop thinking about someone, or that someone completely overwhelmed their mind and they cant think straight. They say they’re in love, and then they break up the next day. The waterworks last for a week, and then they love someone else. What that is, what they’re feeling, i don’t think that’s love. Thats strong physical attraction. what i think love is, is something else. i think that love takes time to make. Love isn’t when someone loves them so much that they give them tons of presents, or do everything for them. Thats not love, because once u stop doing that they don’t love u no more because they don’t think u love them, or something like that. love is when someone that is happy just to be around u. in essence, love is friendship. Everyone’s mind is brainwashed from romantic comedies that love is fireworks. That someone cant live without the other without dying. Or the idea of love at first sight. i think that love at first sight is bull. if love is as little as seeing someone and u immediately love them , and cant live without them, that’s almost depressing. but love is important. People need to feel love and be loved. Some people just cant function without that constant attention. Thats just the way they are. And statistically people who are married, or have a long term boy/girlfriend are much happier than their single counterparts. i think that u gave up to quick. People find love and lose it countless of times. But that one moment, when u met ur boy/girl, and it just clicks, that makes it all worth it. No matter how much u put down love, when u get there u still will feel amazing. im sorry if im contradicting myself, but that’s the way love is. Love is so contradictory, so many cons, but equal number of pros. there are people who say that love doesn’t even exist. Then scientific types. i must admit that i have some of that outlook. I know that love fundamentally is just alot of chemical reactions, but its too depressing to think of it like that. I think that u should go out and not give up on love. (sorry if my explanation was confusing, contradictory, or just doesn’t make sense, but see, love doesn’t make sense, and my thoughts are all jumbled about this topic.)

Thank you so much for taking the time to write that down. I really enjoyed readying your thoughts and ideas on such a confusing and mysterious topic.

And I agree completely , Love is contradictory. Its amazing how such a simply thing can be so crazy, And unexpected, And yet….Simple and expected. It really is perhaps the single most interesting thing in this universe.

I find it really interesting as well, That you , self proclaimed, have never experienced love, and yet know so much about it already. Another odd wonder of the feeling I suppose.

Please keep the ideas coming =D

Very powerfull statement, but I agree lots of people fill their mouth saying “I love you” or “I’m in Love”. Really some dont have an idea whats love, I’m 39 was married for 21 years I thought i was in love all those years, not knowing really what to feel, how does it feel, what it does to you, untill I found a new guy that showed me what love is. And how do I know that, because I had to compare how I was before and how I’m now. Its an amazing feeling u give your all, you cant get them aout of your head, you cant wait to be with them, your eyes are full all light at all times that people can see right through you. HAPPINESS is all around you. its simple yes.. and unexpected true.,,. but when its there you’ll know it. Now I also know how it feels not to be loved,and it hurts like hell. I being there and now I will take my time and look very well before I open my heart to any one, at least I know the two worlds and I feel lucky I went through it, not that its a great deal because you have to fail in life sometimes to learn, but I know now. Its going to take more than an ” I love you baby ” for me to believe it.
But trust me.. you will know when u fall in love, the world takes a different turn and u will in it to find out.

My granny once told me a wonderful piece of advice– love is not about compromise its about being yourself and doing what makes you happy and finding someone that likes to see you that way…………

I completely agree with you guys, love isn’t something you throw around like a baseball or put out then take back, it’s something you need to feel, you can’t make it, and very rarely can you destroy it, it’s just there.
