to love is like...

We desire many things. We travel the world in hopes of finding something new - desire. We work at a boring job to support a family - desire. We play games in hopes of winning - desire. But most importantly, we desire love, companionship and happiness.

Ever try and explain love? Or even companionship? Hardest one is happiness I think. How do you explain the feeling of love? It's just so hard to describe it. How do you know if what you experienced is love at all if it couldn't be explained to you?

Here's my interpretation of how I perceive love to be:
The mere presence of them calms your nerves, a touch, like the heat of fire sending you skyward. A wordless whisper from them reads like an encrypted message of passion. You know what they mean by it. Complete, understanding.

To love.. is like saying to the other person "Here... take my heart and do whatever it is you want to do with it." in the hopes of never getting hurt.
