Love Theme
They say to love is a beautiful thing They say to love is work, but is
worth it.
Alas, they say to love is to be eternally happy. But who
exactly is "they?"
And I can’t help but wonder if "they" themselves have
ever truly been in
love. I say to love is to devote your time to the boy down
the road, and then be
dumped. 5 months wasted! I say to love is to be
artificically shown affection,
and when it is at it’s best, vanishes as
quickly as it came. I say to love is
to feel the joy of victory by winning
the eye of the guy you like, and then
feeling the agony of defeate when he is
taken away by the blonde girl with curly
hair; forever! I say to love is to
expose your most precious expression; your
innocence, and to have it stripped
away from you like the youth from the old.
All that is left is a torn
soul. I say to love is to become someone that you
aren’t. You never jumped
before when the phone rang. You never painted your
nails or wore skirts, and
now look at you. You used to be true and original, but
now.... I say to love
is to be changed permanently. Once that first glance, the
first affectionate
touch, and the first kiss occours, you want it, no, you need
to have it all
the time. You become a monster who’s hunger can’t be fed, and
then you are
crushed when the only thing you think you need never calls back and
just
walks away. Most things that are bad or are harmful in this world, we
become
afraid of. We try to form a "safety blanket" of laws to protect us.
But
what about love? It hurts too doesn’t it? Should we do 10-15 years for
every
phone calls not returned? No, that wouldn’t work. Should we do 20-25
years
for every heart we break? No, I don’t think that is it either. Should we
lock
ourselves up inside and never show vulnerability? No, then no one would
like
us. So I suppose that to love, Well, quite simply to love is to be hapy
sad,
angry, frustrated and mad. To be giddy jumpy, as sweet as pie, and then to
be
balling crying, and not knowing why. Sure, it’s not fair, but still we
take
every hit! But hey, we are women.
