L'amour


Love is a beautiful thing, is it not?

It brings us joy

It gives people a reason to live

People hold so much value to this invisible idea

You cannot see it, or touch it

You can't smell it

But you can feel it right?

Way deep down in the core of your being

you find love

the way your butterflies flutter in your stomach when you see him or her

That overwhelming sense of excitement that emanates from your dog gets when you get home

after only being gone an hour

Everyone wants it

they want to give love

they want to be loved

some people revolve their lives around it

their goal in life is to grow old with their loved ones

have children whom they love

have a career in which they love going to everyday

who wouldn't?

Love is everywhere whether you can see it or not

It has it's dark times however

In order to love you have to hurt

with love comes betrayal, disappointment, anger

the underlying factor of those feelings is love

where there is love there is hate

where there is hate there is love

love is pervasive and always will be.
