Years of infatuation with love,
Lusting over the idea of it,
Hopeless romantic,
Mindset,
Brainwashed,
Romantic movies, ear-gasm songs expressing their love,
Relationships I got in were lost,
looking for what I saw on TV,
The picture of love,
How I pictured it,
Perfect,
I chased something that wasn’t real,
Realistic,
I wanted kisses the way I saw it,
Tight hugs the right way the movie in my head played out,
Eye contact,
Running in the rain,
That love jones and the notebook type of sh*t,
Long conversations everlasting,
beating the sun before it rises,
The best friend type relationship is what I day dreamed of,
Something like Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps in love & basketball,
But I was trippin,
That kind of love don’t exist that’s just for show,
Matter fact that’s not real love,
That’s lust,
I know cause I experienced it myself,
Consistently,
Love on the other hand is quite different,
It’s not about that mushy stuff although it comes with it,
Love is…
Well the total opposite,
It’s the dirt under every beautiful thing,
To love is to be imperfect,
To deal with imperfections,
All of them that come along,
Unconditional that’s what love is,
Love is hard,
that’s why people don’t stay together long cause they haven’t learned how to deal with love,
Love is learnt,
We give up on it too fast cause it’s difficult,
Never giving love a chance to teach us a lesson and change our hearts,
That’s what it’s here for,
Love is no where near simple,
There’s levels to it,
So if your not willing to take some steps for it no reason to do it,
It’s a sacrifice,
At least that’s what I learned so far..
