"Love is mine, Love is one of a kind," That's what they say but do you really understand what it means?
Love is not really yours most of the time, it's a feeling within you that you have to give away.
Yes, you can love yourself but the love you have for yourself is rarely used.
You have to constantly remind yourself to use it.
I think that love is based on a person's heart.
Using my imagination I'll say love is a dark room, with one light bulb hanging from the ceiling, a big lock on the door sealing it away and your heart is the key to opening it.
If you choose to open the door, to love, you have to use your heart to open it and you have to tell yourself if you will like to leave the room dark or turn on the light.
The majority of people leave the light off, causing them to move around blindly, not knowing the direction they really want to go. This makes loving someone very difficult.
They take so long to decide whether they want the light on or not, that they end up losing someone who already decided they want their light on.
