Significant Other

Love - comes in ways unknown at times you least expect it to. This person becomes the significant other without any format ties and the world starts to revolve round that special person.

Love!

So why does one fall in love?
Who do we fall in love with?
When and maybe how do we know we are in love?

Most importantly what does love really mean?
Or rather, can being in love be explained?
So many questions with no definite answers...!
Yet!
Love is an emotion that's always in the air
Almost at every corner of the universe!

Love, is the ache one has in their heart of longing to be with...
Love, is when pieces of a puzzle that start to fit snug and tight...
Love, is to wait hours to hear a little giggle...
Love, is the eagerness to succumb to the softness extended towards you...
Love, is the feeling to wholeheartedly submit in totality...
Love, is to experience seamless connection...
Love, is the readiness to experience the joy

In the end... 

Being in love is when you see yourself in someone else's eyes

no, not at all. love is when you want to give something to another person because you're thankful that they're in your life. all of these feelings about receiving stuff from the "one you love", that's infatuation. being loved is very different than loving. you feel loved, you're not in love. people love to be loved, but to be in love is wanting to give. you're focused on having an experience, which you receive from another. until you want to give, you're not in love. you're infatuated.

I think what the author is conveying, is how they feel that they are in love. Maybe this only shows the side of them that is loved and so, they can love. Everyone is different and has their own definition! But, some may also agree with you and I think it is good to challenge each other :)

i don't know what i'm talking about. i defer to women. i'm just upset they don't have more work for me to do!!

Well, damn. I thoroughly enjoyed this well-written poem. It is a beautiful representation of what one could feel about love. Everyone has their own definition of love.
