LOVE!!

The word that has amazed me all the time{and still amazes me ..} with the different meanings it acquires in different contexts .have you ever wondered how a single word could mean soo much!! .but for most of us and most of the time we happen to limit its meaning to that special feeling for that sumone special belonging to the opposite sex...isnt it ???
Have you ever been in love? terrible isn't it? It makes u so vulnerable.It opens ur chest and it opens up ur heart and it means that someone can get inside u and mess u up. You build up all these defenses, u build up a whole suit of armour, so that nothing can hurt u, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into ur stupid life...u give them a piece of u. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss u or smile at u, and then ur life isn't ur own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside u. It eats u out and leaves u crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-u-and-rips-u-apart pain.

you paint a very bleak picture of something so beautiful...yes all that you mentioned does happen but what about the extremely happy feeling one gets inside when in love? like nothing can ever harm you..like you are the happiest person on earth...and who says just because you love a person you have to spend the rest of your life with him or her? love never asks for anything in return...it is just for giving..and when someone gives it back..well that is a bonus which needs to be cherished..:)
