Love, they say, is the most powerful feeling a human can feel

LOVE… they say, is finding someone who you share mutual care for

…But no

 Love isn’t a feeling

Love isn’t mutual care

Love is surrender

Love is surrendering yourself to another despite how frightening it is

Love is being so vulnerable you can risk HATING the other person

Love is risking your happiness

Love is risking your peace

Love is risking your privacy

Love… is risking your ego

Love is a gamble

Do not quake, do not shudder

The surrender is nigh, so give in

Trek there, where the mystery lay, where uncertainty casts it’s vast shadow

You cannot fight the shadow

Surrendering, gambling, feeling, caring

No matter its name

Love is to be fought for and not feared

Cast aside the game played to obtain it

Dangerous games come with dangerous curses

Love when it hurts

Love when it heals

Do not grow cold from bitter fate

After all…

 Love, they say… is the most powerful feeling a human can feel
