A friend once asked what love is...


A friend once asked what love is
pleading with the sun to tell
she said; I have seen creation
beauty life and death and hell
but LOVE, it cannot be defined
for on earth
to each thier own
she begged her,


Why do people fall in love?

My answer: People fall in love because we are weak. Humans are the only race on earth that has this crazy thing called love, where things get screwed up because of ignornance. People fall in love because they cannot find within themselves what they find in someone else, and it pulls it to that person, like gravity.

Why does love hurt so bad?

My Answer: Love hurts because of how rich and deep it is. When you fall in love you are taking a risk, and a good ninty percent of the time, when taking a risk there is a good chance that you will get hurt. Love hurts because it comes from the part of us we can never explain, or understand, and to lose it, feels like being shoved back in the womb.

Why do people try to stop u from falling in love, even though u are already in love?

My answer: because they have been hurt before, because thier friends have been hurt before, because they are too cowardly themselves to take a risk and exploit thier own feelings.

Why is love such a hurtful thing?

My answer: this question is redudant.

Author notes

anything written after "why do people fall in love?" was an acutally message that went back and forth from a friend of mine to me via myspace. She posted as a bulletin and i could not help myself but to respond. These are my acutal answers, and the poem at the beggining was simply meant to make this seem a little more creatively inspired.

    Robby and I would often talk about why I'm such a jaded person. That fact of the matter is this: I've been this way for almost ten years now. So I told him all that - and he did exactly what would hurt most, or rather, what would numb the most: pushed me away.

    He says that it was for the better. I don't believe that, and I don't want to. I had no problem waiting so be with him, because I loved him. He, on the other had, had to satisfy his sexual desires and couldn't do it with a guilty conscience - so away I went.

    I don't know him - I'm a very intiment person when I'm in love, and I have a lot of defense mechanisms. I choose to be cautious because I know what will happen if I'm not.

    Scared? You betcha. And with good reason. I'd rather wait to find an unselfish person that I can trust and be open with, rather than have to worry about his personality all the time.

    Love is universal. It means different things to different people. For me, it means being comfortable and sharing pains, fears, happiness and joy. Real love is not a fairytale. Real love takes time and committment.

    I think that love lies entirely on the person. Some are more adapt to it, others are not. The question is: in adapting to love, should one be more vigilent in choosing a partner or should one be more concerned with letting go of those inner feelings? I feel that it's a combination of both. Trying to find that middle ground and not letting personal experiences push the middle bearing too much to either side is a hard thing.

    I've always been an intuitive person, and my instincts play on that intuition. Only time will tell if I am able to balance myself out, or if that quality will lead down another path in life, superceding any requirement for an equilibrium balance of love consensus.
