If it hasn't made you leap up wildly to embrace one morning or try to sink into the wretched bowels of one night, it probably isn't Love.
Yes, if it hasn't made you a model of unreasonable behaviour, it probably isn't love.
If it hasn't made you an amalgam of opposites; a fiery iceberg, a bleeding bouquet, it probably isn't Love.
If it hasn't made you want to wander streets in search of your lover or death, it probably isn't love.
If it hasn't made you more tolerant than you've ever been yet more petty than you've ever dreaded, it probably isn't Love.
If it hasn't made you want to own the person, the whole and every part, then it probably isn't love.
And in return, give yourself to them; more than they ask for, more than they can handle, and say '' Keep me,'' it probably isn't Love.
If there are whys and wherefores, it probably isn't love.

Does it have to be like this every time?
Probably.
Scary!
Wow! How can you guys question this? Or say its scary? Its not. Its painfully true and beautiful and inescapable.. its love. And i love that it is the only thing to make us truly naked.. Truly open.
Well, love may mean different things to different people, right? (But I mostly agree with you, Lulu)
