Love is. That's it. Love, very simply, is. There is no complete definition and each one differs from person to person. I want to know what everyone's definition of this thing called "Love" is.
For me... Love is absolute comfort in a person. It is the ultimate connection of people. A caring for someone so strong and so powerful that it goes beyond words. In reality everything we feel is a burst of electricity within out brains but love, real true love, is deeper. Beyond scientific explanation. Perhaps I'll explain more when I'm not feeling so lazy. ^_^
Okay, I wrote this poem a while ago, see what you guys think. ^_^
This feeling I get when the bliss boils up
and over the the top to point of erupt.
This harmony that shouts to the heavens and back
and comes down to rest and pick up the slack.
This serenity that bestows itself upon the soul
is ever uplifting and makes me whole.
This state of being, this eternal high,
shall not be placated until I die.
I see it in the eyes and the heart and the soul,
certaintly such sweetness must take it's toll.
But ever onward I trudge, through fire and hell,
for this feeling I feel will not be withheld.
I beat forward, not back, and I'll do so post-haste,
for any time without it is time that's been waste.
This feeling I feel, I'm an addict I sense,
for without it I feel my chest start to tense.
This feeling I know and I seek like a drug,
cannot be stilled with only a hug.
This feeling of euphoria that's too good to be true,
can only become when I lay eyes on you.
Love represents a range of human emotions and experiences related to the senses of affection and sexual attraction. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.
As an abstract concept love usually refers to a strong, ineffable feeling towards another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual. Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.
That may sound mechanical, but, eh, I'm an academic first and foremost.

What is love? Fuck that Haddaway song those SNL Roxbury sketches loved to jab in our throats back in the 90's. Instead, let's go a decade back in time (fittingly) to find out what love is, through an awesome 80's song insert from an awesome 80's movie.
The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling, that's the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girls dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night
Chorus 1 :
You don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and its sudden and its cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love
First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But you'll be glad baby when you've found
That's the power makes the world go 'round
Chorus 2 :
And it don't take money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and its sudden it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you don't care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm
Chorus 3 :
It don't take money and it don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You wont feel nothin' till you feel
You feel the power, just the power of love
That's the power, that's the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love
love is when u find the right person that treats u well and u treat him/her well and u under stand each other. Also ur relation ship is ot just a bout sex, or looks, but wats inside. but sex is nice. lol.
Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart and please don't break it
Love was made for me and you
I think love is accepting a person's flaws, their hang-ups, their fears and still willing to accept more from them. Love is being able to be completely unguarded when it comes to emotions and accepting who you are as a person and not being afraid of intimate moments. Love is that touch from that person that makes you feel that weird feeling in the pit of your stomach...it doesn't make you sick but it feels weird but yet you don't mind it.
that's what I think love is........everything and nothing all at once.
Mmmh..... I always thought love is when the girl picks the most "interesting" (mean) guy so that she has to do all the housework for the rest of her life. :p
Ametatsu said: Love is when a man picks out the prettiest girl he knows and has her do the housework for the rest of her life.
...right? :o
prettiest has nothing to do with love
you can fall in love with anyone
love is to want to share your life with her
wanting to be with her every second thats left
is giving that person the key to your depest secrets and feelings
its the thing that makes you want to hug her for eternity
that you miss her even if she only went to buy something and she will be back in 5 minutes
a single kiss a single i love you feels you with the warmest feelings
you want her to be happy with you you want to spend the time with her and enjoy the every second togheter
prettiest has nothing to do with love
you can fall in love with anyone
Thats true, I guess. But when she is beautiful its more likely that men want to get to know her, so the chance that she finds "love" is higher....
...but the probability that she entagles herself in meaningless games, heartaches and depression is also higher. ;)
i worte this just now. ... srry if it's not that good.
love is an emotional roller coaster
it's like waves
pushing and pulling you with the currents
though explained in many things
many words
all most people wanna hear
is something they call acceptable
it's an emotion, an idea, a noun, a verb
and so many others
most people love the feeling
others hate the pain
love is...
so many things
I found these two sometime ago and I totally agree with every single word of them. They're both kind of long, so sorry about. =/
