Love.

Love.

A Poem by Alexis
"

Just thinking...

"
What IS love?
And why does there have to be so many different kinds?
Like , the way you love you best friend is different from the way you love your boyfriend.
I don ' t like that.
And then people just take love so , ugh.
Like , if I ' m holding hands with my best friend ,
It doesn ' t mean we are going to go home and have sex.
And what is so wrong with that ;
Holding hands with your best friend?
I mean if you love that person that much then why is it so wrong , 
So wrong to hold hands with your best friend?
Which brings me back to the whole "different types of love thing".
"Love" is ONE WORD.
I mean there are a lot of different definitions , 
But in the end , 
They all come back to one thing.
Right?

Love: a  great intense pleasure in something.
I find great intense pleasure in being around my best friend , 
So is it so wrong for me to hold my best friends hand?
Is it so wrong for me to WANT to. 
I mean not saying I do , 
But I mean people theses days , 
Make it so hard to do anything. 
Everything has to mean something , 
To the most EXTREME extent. 
So if i hold his hand , 
We are going to go home and have sex , 
And get married , 
And have 1000 kids.
Ummm no. 
But I love him.
So why should it matter to anyone else?
Or maybe it matters to me. 
What I think.
Do I think I ' m in the wrong?
I mean not that I did anything , 
But if i didn ' t care what people thought , 
I probably wouldn ' t be writing this right now. 
Would I?
This is confusing. 

But anyways , 
Back to what I was originally saying.
Love is one word.
One thing.
It IS one. 
So why do people have to interpret into 
100000000000000000000000000000000000
Different things?

Author's Note

Alexis
I guess it ' s not REALLY a poem...
And don ' t draw any conclusions from my writing.
I am just saying.
Think of all this as hypothetical , there you go!
Oh and Reviews would be much appreciated.
Give me your point of view. :)

This is good, really interesting as well. You've made a really good point and love is something that is completly and utterly confising and there are so many ways that we interperate the feeling as humans. And also if you say it's a poem then it is, don't let anyone tell you what your writing is you make your mind up on it. But anyway I do get your point and I have experianced similar things like with giving people hugs (it's always instantly asumed that you eather fancy said person or are dating them, why does the penny never click that you maybe just wanted a hug - or in your case just wanted to hold the guy's hand?)
