L word

"I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you."
~Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Guess when one feels the love, there are subtle changes to the defensive wraps which one barricades the world against. It starts to peel off one by one. Metamorphosis. Emergence of a new entity which is similar on the inside but yet so different on the surface. The beauty of it beholded only by the eyes of your lover. Bringing out the best in a person. Or perhaps, supporting each other to become a better person.


Hmm, Another analogy.

Love is like a bridge, connecting 2 different universes into 1 single entity.
Which reminds of a scene at POTC last night where James told Elizabeth that their fates were once interwined but never joined. And then he died while giving her a chance to live. I believe that Love is what makes you willing to die protecting the person rather than live watching the person die.


Next,

"How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?"
~Albert Einstein

The intellectual is always showing off,

the lover is always getting lost.

The intellectual runs away.

afraid of drowning;

the whole business of love

is to drown in the sea.

Intellectuals plan their repose;

lovers are ashamed to rest.

The lover is always alone.

even surrounded by people;

like water and oil, he remains apart.

The man who goes to the trouble

of giving advice to a lover get nothing.

He's mocked by passion.

Love is like musk. It attracts attention.

Love is a tree, and the lovers are its shade.

Something to engage your brain and heart, my darlings. Just like a piece of fine dark choc. Savouring the taste of something good in your mouth, whilst endorphins soothes your mind and your heart swooning at the pleasure of it all. With the orgamsic flavours bursting through your body, wrecking it senseless. Love.
