What About Love

The Witch says:

What about falling in love? What's so special about it that as far as written history is concerned it has been the subject most written and talked about. The greatest writers, poets and songwriters have dissected the promise and the story behind all avenues of falling.

I say you fall in love and you need not ask why or how or what. Accept that it happened and be thankful if it did. It's special in the sense that it's inexplainable, not because you can't verbalize it.

Lemme see...The last time I fell in love...it wasn't too nice. Period. Hahaha~ And the Bitch and the Lady can attest to that.

The Lady says:

I believe in tragedy and from what I've seen that's what falling in love is all about. The joy, the bliss of falling and being then the pain, the tears that comes from the loss. I may not know what falling in love means or being in love but I have seen what people would like to call love and it's always a profound experience.

Profound experience? It is but it doesn’t go without saying that sometimes it can be irritating. There are a lot of things that I've witnessed and I've come to accept that it's part of the game but there's one thing I could not accept. The part where they would fight for love but when in fact the person you're fighting for doesn’t seem to love you at all? Would you actually call it love when someone continuously disrespects you as a person? Would it still be love when it's just words?

A love that's not returned they say is tragedy in the making but that's what they call selfless love. Then again if truly is selfless, won't letting go be its ultimate form? Letting go so that the one you love can find the one that will make them happy and make them a better person.

Okay so I'm rambling again... But falling in love for me at the moment is a teddy bear. I never really thought myself as a teddy bear kind of person but one night, there was a noticeable lack of pillow at home so I had to make do with the one thing that's available - a teddy bear. So I grabbed the bear and spent the night hugging the furry bundle and I found that it was really nice. And the thought that I actually want one was surprising and the more I think about it, the more I want one. It's simple, honest and that for now will suffice for my definition of falling in love. Oh and it has to have a face of West from Heroes.

The Bitch Says:

Can it really be defined? i mean, seriously? CAn it be planned? predicted? it should be! haha~ i mean, i know it takes the fun out of everything, but heck planning and predicting when and where and why and how you fall in love might be fun at the part where you eliminate all the hurt "possibly" that comes with it. in a "perfect world" kind of scenario.

so i guess, all i can say about it is: "love? what about it?"

dont get me wrong, i can say that i am pretty happy right now that i am in love with one person, and i cherish this because primarily i don't know how long it will last. Let's not sugar coat anything, it will sound plain stupid to say that this is going to be forever... Realistically speaking, i have no freakin' idea if this is "it" or this is just the tip of the iceberg...

so like i said: "love? what about it?"

The Witch says:

What about love indeed?

I can't seem to decide whether there's too much attention given to it or too little. Sometimes I'd even go as far as saying I never knew what love is like. Of course I'm lying.

Fact is though, as hard as I try to not notice it, the more it stares back at me with guiltless eyes. And you know what? I stare back with fear.

So what about love?
