i mentioned earlier
that love is a part
of what makes us human
but at the same time
its more than that
but also less than that
love is what we desperately hope for
but try to push away
because what if
it were truly just a dream
just a wish
just something made up
by hippies driven by drugs
and what if its real
oh if its real
were all doomed
because what if you missed your chance
and what if its too late
but heres the truth about love
it will be there when you least expect it
its not something you breath in
or something in the air
its something inside of each of us
just like when my parents truth fully said
they loved each other
i can say that i love hot chocolate
in fact i can say i'm in love with hot chocolate
because hot cocoa has no say in my feelings for it
there is no force telling me
hot cocoa is attractive or hot or delicious
its my personal opinion
but maybe one day i will win a contest
and because i love hot chocolate more than anyone else on the planet
i will get to jump into the worlds largest mug of hot cocoa
and drink all i want
and maybe i will discover that hot cocoa
should be served cold if intended to drink
and spend time in the hospital due to third degree burns
maybe i will learn
i'm not as good at swimming as i thought
and also spend time in the hospital
and maybe just maybe i will stop loving hot cocoa
but that doesn't mean that i didn't love hot cocoa
or that that love wasn't real
it simply means that i don't see it the same way anymore
which is why you don't truly deeply love someone
until you learn to love their faults
because love is not in the air
its something inside you
and even though loving someone is not always your choice
working for that love is
love is genuine caring
and believing that that person
faults and all
is important
and that you want to spend your time with them
that you want to make them smile
to make them happy
that you want that person to rely on you
love isnt a great force out in the world
but a great force within you that no one truly understands yet
because you cannot program a robot to love
and it is far from logical
i can only assume that
rather than love being some stupid chemical in the brain
it is a part of you
a part of you that
like a drug
tells your brain to be happy or sad or confused or strait out dumb founded
because love is hard complex
and definitely not a part of science or math
because no matter how science tries to define it
it dosent make sense
if it were science
love would make us happy
just happy
if it were math
one person plus another
gives you three
because two people can make a baby
i know im far from qualified
to tell you that science and math
have nothing on love
but if my brain could contain love
i wouldn't feel like someone turns it off
whenever i'm near you
like i'm running on the fumes
of past thoughs
past words
like i can never say the right things
or talk enough
i would never feel like i needed to open up to you
because i dont feel like i need to to speak my mind to anyone else
