What is love?

From my perspective, love is an intellectually divine relationship between two vivacious people. Moreover, are mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually connected. It is that woman who you couldn’t bear the thought of losing, because to watch her walk away and know that you may never see her again, would mean that best part of you would be going with her. If you have ever heard the saying “Love of Beauty is taste and creation of beauty is art”, then you would surely know that the woman I describe is a masterpiece. Love in my eyes, is a woman period. A woman that will make her heart you’re home, and yours her treasure because she will go to great lengths to protect it. They are a symbol for what is and what will always be, “Beautiful”.


It is that instance when you realize that you thought you had everything you wanted, until that woman came into your life. It’s the essential part of humanity, which can be felt deep within the mind, body and soul. Lost within your own world, imagining that you could just jump into their eyes, swim down their soul and land on their heart. You would never have to come up for air because as long as you have them, they are all the breath you need.




If you were not a very good writer in your past relationships, chances are it wasn't love because when you are truly in love. It has ways of making you write/tell poetic stories, as testaments to the true encounter of the one thing everyone truly desires. In my closing statement, love is not only beauty but unconditional. Love has no limitations or boundaries. It is the things that you are willing to give up for and the future you are willing to create. Furthermore, it is life in many ways, and a path that many travel. When you find it, hold on tight and enjoy the ride because it takes you to places you have never been. On that note, I leave you with one question, what is love to you?
