you can copy and paste the definition of love into a blank page
but it still doesn't fill the emptiness.
all there will be is words
that don't mean anything.
Love (verb): To love. To feel completely devoted and attached to something/someone. To know that nothing else in the world will ever compare or matter as much. To KNOW.
Making Love (verb): Fucking with emotion. An act of pouring your soul into another. To reveal all of yourself, every fucked up detail of your persona to your partner.
Falling in Love (verb): the act of being completely smitten with another person to the point of ignoring all of their flaws. To fall in love is to reach a state of psychosis that will eventually fade and you will see each other as you really are. damaged.
Love (noun): An intangible "feeling" that is impossible to know unless... you know.
"if you were in love, you'd know it"
Historically:
Love is something that our world fights for, and fights over. We so badly need someone to love us that we do things for attention, make rash and rushed decisions. we burn bridges and lose friendships to keep love alive. we tell people that only some are capable or deserving of love. We set guidelines on love and we break rules for love.
Medically:
Love blinds us. We become so enthralled in the idea of love that if we don't have it, we spiral into states of depression and think ourselves "not good enough" for anyone to love us. Heartbreak: when a person "so in love" is let down by their partner. The pain they feel they connect with the heart which they connect with love. When a couple breaks up, their brains and bodies go through a state of detox. they must cleanse themselves of the memory of the comfort of that other person. Little things will trigger memories; scents, songs. eventually the brain and body heals, just like coming down from a drug addiction, although, there will always be cravings for love.
