Defining Love
<p>I love you.</p><p>These words have always felt foreign to me.</p><p>They taste bittersweet in my mouth.</p><p>Once so sacred </p><p>now so casual,</p><p>they have lost their weight.</p><p>Anyone can say them,</p><p>even without meaning them.</p><p><br/></p><p>I love you.</p><p>But do I really?</p><p>How do I know?</p><p>Do butterflies really burst</p><p>in my belly like in the novels?</p><p><br/></p><p>I wonder </p><p>how does a girl know she loves a boy,</p><p>or a boy a girl,</p><p>and knows it for sure?</p><p>Is it attraction,</p><p>is it intellect,</p><p>is it beauty alone?</p><p>You are the most beautiful one I have seen</p><p>on this earth </p><p>I say I love you,</p><p>but is that all there is?</p><p><br/></p><p>Attraction vs. love </p><p>are they the same?</p><p>Can one love</p><p>without being drawn to you?</p><p><br/></p><p>They say love is blind </p><p>and maybe it is.</p><p>But maybe it’s not.</p><p>To me,</p><p>love is something one defines for themselves.</p><p>Love may be blind to you</p><p>but sight to me.</p><p>Beautiful to you,</p><p>confusing to me.</p><p><br/></p><p>Love should be unique </p><p>defined by each heart,</p><p>not by the world.</p>
