I Hate Love

I hate love.

Love is not just a feelings that gets you high.
on seeing your partner at the twinkling of an eye
Its a  deep response that make a hot fire become cold as ice
Even if you  see danger coming nigh
You still want to give it a try
When in both arms you wish the light never goes out
That's the true reflection of the nature deposited in us by the most high.
I have heared different versions of love
Some say it the happiest thing that could ever happen to me
Some say it takes seconds to be in love
Some say Just keep going love will find you
Some say i have got to find love
I anticipated the wild feelings of love
It seems like it will be  heaven on earth or Even as the day I was born
I wanted to play the game of Love
And get it returns
With high tenacity I anticipated
Now I have delved into it
It entirely different from what I heared and assume it to be
I never knew I would be patience most of the time
I  never knew i would apologised often times
I never knew little things count
I never knew it would cost me more than  expected.
I never knew I would be wrong for doing what's Right
I wanted to be loved loved and loved
I was sure it wasn't lust but love
I interpreted and understood my feelings right
It took me ample time before I could give me
I wanted to be loved, fall in love and remain in love
But the reverse is the case
Little did i understood that healthy love was commitment based on understanding, mutual respect,Communication and ideal sacrifice
The love I hate  were  those I read in books,Watched in the movie,Read In novels , told in stories.
They will never be real as such I experienced
Understanding love is to experience it first hand
No source for love. LOVE IS experience

Ancient fantasy built on a rumor. Love is shaped in hungry hearts.
