Love Bite

Love.. easy to utter.. easy to spell.. hard to comprehend.

That’s what my jaded thoughts came at hand. After having a cozy talk with a friend about love and relationships. I got stuck in the midst of wondering on how powerful that word is and how perplexed a person can be about it.

Sometimes we thought that once we feel it, everything will follows. Like 'kilig', happy feelings, happy thoughts, happy moments and with all the goodness that you can ever think of that goes with it.

Love is when there are a million things you want to say to someone.. and when they look you in the eyes and hold you in their arms nothing in life matters other than being with that person at that certain moment. A happiness given back and forth, a precious gift that you receive, and you need to give it with caution. Ideally that’s what love is. But.. does love really equates to one’s happiness or perhaps one’s misery? Maybe some are just lucky to find someone as their better half and some are just plain unlucky.. and there goes the other face of love.

For me, Love is like a roller coaster. It has it's ups and downs. It twists and turns. It’s like an earthquake which will shaken your whole being. It’s unpredictable, seriously scary and no matter how much you will say you’re ready for it, you will never be. You’ll never know what would that feeling brings unless you are actually feeling it and got bitten by it. As the saying goes.. "No one actually falls in love by choice, it is by chance that we fall in love." Nobody  really stays in love by change, it is by how much work we put in it. And with all this, I believe that no one actually falls out of love by chance.. it's really by choice that we happen to lose grip of it.

Sometimes no matter how much you want someone, no matter how much you love them, no matter how desperate you are for them... sometimes you just can't have them or if you’re lucky you get what you want and then eventually one day you’ll go and lose what you have without even expecting it. Love is a blindly long walk that after experiencing it for a long time you should become familiar with some particular spots. You should have learn from what was previously left unlearned. Otherwise, it would be just a cycle and you’ll end up in the same old wilderness.. stunned by a love bite.

Truth, love is not all that good. Reality speaks that it sucks at times.

We all know that the greatest feeling in life is to find someone who knows your faults and weaknesses and still willing to embrace you with so much love without any doubt. It’s a happy thoughts to think about love that way BUT then again we, hard-headed foolishly romantic humans do tend to fall for the ones who won't catch us, and sometimes we need to stupidly hit the ground in order to find the one who will. What’s important is that at the end of the day, when the hard part is over we're either smiling or crying and there you will realize how lucky we really are to have loved and have been loved at all no matter how happy and painful we get.
