what is love?

How do you know if it's love? Is it the way they look at you with those captivating eyes? Is it the way they hug you, never wanting to let go? How do you know if you want to spend the rest of your life with that special someone? Another living, breathing human being? Love is a complicated thing.

Love is love. To me, loving someone is simply enjoying their presence even if it's in silence. You can't get enough of him or her. Love is making him or her happy because it makes you happy. You want to constantly be with them because you can't get enough of their smell, feel, or presence. You want to talk to them about stuff that you haven't talked to anyone else before. You want to share your hopes, desires, dreams, fears, and build a life with him or her. You want to do stuff that you've always wanted to do and go on adventures with that person. Love is about staying in on a Friday night, ordering pizza and watching a documentary because you don't want to be with anyone else. I don't know about you but I love love. It sounds like an amazing feeling. I hope everyone falls in love and get love like that in return. 

And that's what love is to me. I can see a person in my mind that fulfills that piece in me. The yin to my yang. The sun to my moon. The night to my day. The peanut butter to my jelly. Can you? If not, don't worry, love is out there. It will find us all. I hope you'll find that person to get lost in. That person is waiting for you. Or you might have found the one.
