"I love you."

what is love?

Love is meeting someone for a moment everyday and learning more about who they truly are.
Love is the soft smiles they bring you when you are sad.
Love is the happiness they bring when you wake up and they greet you warmly.
Love is that moment when you realize how important that person is to you.
Love is the playfulness in pretend fist fights, soft bites on the arm, and piggy back rides through the house.
Love is the shock of the first kiss.
Love is the sadness when they are not there.
Love is the longing to be in their arms.
Love is the anger they bring when things go too far.
Love is the depression you go through about everything that went wrong.
Love is the confusion all the things above bring in the end.
Love... love is fear. Fear of losing the one you want. Fear of losing a close friend. Fear of losing a family member.
Love is acceptance.

I try my hardest to be perfect for the ones I love and at the same time, be myself.
I am afraid.
I don't want to feel that pain anymore.
I don't want to hear the words "i love you" ever again.
Unless you can promise me that I will never lose you.
That you accept me as I am.
Until you can promise me that and prove it....
Don't tell me you love me.

:clap: Quite touching, and most certainly true, my dear.
So many individuals these days believe in a sort of fantasy love, wrapped around those three little words, that could not be further from the actual emotions, both the pleasures and the pains, that come with love.
