Io non amo i ragazzi. Non amo le ragazze. Mi innamoro di persone.
It's easy to say I love you when you are face to face. It's easy to say I love you when you are inside someone. It's easy to say I love you when they are caring for you. It's easy to say I love you when the butterflies are in your stomach and every waking moment is consumed with one another. But it's not easy to say I love you when they want nothing to do with you. It's not easy to say I love you when you know they don't love you. It's not easy to say I love you when it's been a consistent battle to remain friends. It's not easy to say I love you when you always choose guys who make you feel less than you are. It's not easy to say I love you when I have been waiting four years for you to feel anything for me. And it certainly is not easy to say I love you when there is an ocean separating the two of us. I don't love you because I need you, I need you because I love you. Love is not a feeling, or an emotional connection, or an opportunity not to be alone. Love is dedication, a choice to knit your heart and soul to another because nobody else can compare to the joy, peace, affection, and trustworthiness that you have. So I love you. I love you. I love you. You may never read this, but it's the deepest part of my love for you.

A Man's Love
People walk into your life. They share their stories, they fight with you, they make love to you - People walk out of your life. Their entrance as unexpected as their exit. But how different and miserable life would have been without them. I just can't explain how much I want you to stay.

I've never been in love but I imagine it's kind of like skiing on a glassy lake in the fresh July sunlight. Or the bellyache you get from laughing for hours uninhibited head thrown back, eyes watering. Or the thud of the ball on the worn hardwood floor, the soft swish of the net when a shot meets its target. Love is like a lot of things, and darling, you're a symphony of sounds and smells and tastes and feelings I could never tire of. So maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I have been in love with you, and this world, and everything in it Because love is like everything and nothing at once. It's defined by its undefinability. c.l.c

symphonic love
You broke my heart over the course of a month. I was on my knees and on the verge of tears When I first realized we could not be saved but, I endured it all in hopes that somehow, it would all work out in the end. I pray, Every day, That the love of your life never makes you feel as unwanted and replaceable as you made it seem that I was, my love. I wish someone had prayed for me, too.

Irreparably broken and utterly foolish heart of mine, What have I done to deserve such losses? Was she merely a feat too big to accomplish? Why am I so emotional? How.. How How could she forget so easily? She can have all her declarations of love back. That way she can give them to her new lover. All I ask of her is that she keep the ones I gave to her Because like her I'll never love another. I felt like what we had was the start of forever. Why didn't you feel the same?

Questions Never to be Answered...
You are more than just "curiosity". You are definitely not "just a phase". You are more than that. You are the air I breathe. Because without you I would suffocate. You are what keeps me afloat. Because without you I would sink. You will always be before anyone else. Even myself, because without you, I would not exist. **Time will not change the meaning behind the words we have expressed towards each other. This world shall never break us apart.** Because we are forever and always.

Our true thoughts are enclosed inside our own little sanctuary. They seem safer there, than out into the world, where our opinions can be agreed with and our questions can finally be answered. We'd be shot down on the spot if we go against what society wants us to think Can't shine brighter than others. Always be yourself- society No, no. Not like that Well, then. My bad. We are taught to think critically and embrace our intellectual minds. So when we dance like no one is watching, Write like there are no boundaries, Fall in love indiscriminately and wholeheartedly, And riot against society's guidelines, Why do people act like they never saw it coming? Teachers and motivational speakers of today aren't just enlightening the minds of so many young and promising people. They're creating an army

Society...
I refuse to let go of you. You've left an anchor fastened into the depths of my heart. I dare not to remove it, For it's what keeps me from losing my mind in the dark, dark sea of my own conflicting thoughts. Please stay with me forever. You are loved and wanted by many But how many of them actually need you The way that I do?

Engulfed in flames I burned to ash Then flew away into the blustery wind. I am nothing. Nothing but a speck of dust suspended by just the will of others. I live because others want me to. And it's ridiculous how I still feel the urge to please and fill the lives of others with joy, Yet I feel numb. The tears flow every night And perhaps it's my own fault. Funny, though. Whenever I'm around you All those thoughts of dropping dead Or killing myself Just vanish. Even though you're the reason why I've gone suicidal, I'm still deeply, truly, unconditionally in love with you. It's toxicity courses through my veins. I always thought I would die for you. Now I'm remorsefully accepting that I will die, Because of you. **** Why do I keep loving you?

Don't take it personally, my love, But I want him to break your heart. I want you to feel pain. I want you to feel what I felt when you said you missed him. I want you to feel lost. I want you to feel brokenhearted. I want you to feel clueless. Because all you gave me were mixed messages of love, desire, and admiration. Now I won't lie to you or myself. I still have this unconditional love for you. It's foundation blossoms from the pit of my stomach. But I hate you so much. And it kills me to see you hurting Because I know you hurt enough already And I wish I could take away all that hurts you. I'm no superhero though, but I'm certainly not a villain either. I'm just a bystander caught in the crossfire. I wish you could stand in my shoes, at least once. And be able to understand the rush of emotions that flows through my head whenever you fall into my line of vision. The only way that will ever happen is if you hurt. Hurt as passionately as I hurt for you. I hate you almost as strongly as I hold love for you. But please, don't take it personally.
