what is love

what is love ...
does anyone know?
i dont, i guess I never will.

is love feeling the wonderful coolth and sweetly fragrant colors of a wild evening breeze?
and letting it glide through your fingers without ur fingers once shaking a little inane urge to grasp it?
is love seeing a mountain flower without wanting to touch it ... or better still, wanting and still not touching it ...

is love pouring out ur whole soul into one moment of love,
where u feel like ur whole existence quivers & reverbates in resonance?
knowing that the one in who's arms u are melting ur life and soul
will walk out and go on to someone else in the next hour?
smiling at a smile, laughing at a laugh and running restless to soothe the smallest fear ...

or is love when you want to shout till the whole world is drowned out to cinders
and washed away in the flood in second hand pain?
or is love when you want to kill everything that lived bcz the ur love is dying
or is love when u want to burn down whole villages - because the one you loved smiled like that ...
at someone elses charms ...

is love the flame - burning with rage
or is love the lake - calm and silent. smiling. all knowing
or is love the wind. never holding on ...

"Because if love means forever, expecting nothing returned
Then I hope I'll be given another whole lifetime to learn "
