I Want To Know What Love Is

 ^{1 corinthians 13:4-7}
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; ⁵ does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; ⁶ does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; ⁷ bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.



It's no secret that love surrounds all of us. We read about it, gossip about it, watch it in the movies, but how many of us really know what it truly means to love or be loved on a romantic level? Everyone wants to feel love but sadly I question whether true love even exsists any more. We tell others we love them only to hurt and betray them. We make promises we can't keep and we are never satisfied with what we have until it's too late and gone. I use we as in we as a whole but for me love is special.

I don't know if I feel comfortable saying with a hundred percent certainty that I have ever been uncondtionally loved by another before but I can say that each time I've fell in love I have tried my very best to love with out conditions. I have tried to show those I love the same kind of acknowledgement and acceptance that I've so desperately yearned to feel. When I love I love deeply and passionately and I give myself entirely to you. There are no in betweens when it comes to love although we often like to convince ourself that there is. We either love someone or we don't, and if we do then we have to love them unconditionally or it's not love. Accepting those we love despite their faults or flaws, we love them anyway.

Love means being patient and kind and understanding. Love is caring about the feelings of the other. Love is not perfect so there for love is also forgiving. Love is feeling your partners pain and wanting to take it away, but knowing that you can't, you make a conscience decision to do everything in your power to make their world as bright and happy as possible. You console and comfort and share the good and bad of life together. Love is waking up and thinking of how lucky you are to have someone so wonderful in your life and not being able to imagine life without them. Love is being afraid of loosing. Love is being faithful and honest not just to the other person but also to yourself. Don't try and fool yourself into believing something is right when you know that its wrong. When you feel lonely you replace that loniless by being more intune to your partner, not with the attention of others.

Love is trusting yourself to fall in love and trusting that should it not last you will be okay. Love is a risk....your choice whether it's worth taking or not. For me personally it's worth all the pain I've ever felt if I could just find that one who changes it all. If or when I fall in love again, two lives will be forever changed. I will love like I've never been hurt. I will cherish you and respect you and I will not try to change you. I will encourage you and I will believe in you. I just want to know in return that I can trust you, not just with my heart but with everything. I want you to be my best friend and I yours.  I want to share with you everything there is to know about me and I don't want to fear that doing so poses a risk of loosing you. I want you to want to know all of me and not just the parts of me that are easy to like.

I accept that love is not perfect and that love will sometimes hurt.....I just want someone who loves me enough to find the magic in all of love's inperfections. Someone who is willing to grow together and learn from one another. Someone who accepts that I am not perfect but loves me anyway and who wants to see me at my happiest.

I.....want to know what love is........and I want you to show me.....
