something thats shared between two people that care for each other. Two people that would die if the other gets hurt. It's special, and not everyone has it. Some people mistaken it for lust, but don't get it wrong! Love is based on emotion, trust, and deep feelings. Lust is simply based on looks. Once you fine love, charish it, and don't take it for granted.

There are many definitions to love. I suspect this is a pretty new one despite being defined thus over 100-years ago.
That atypical definition from A. Bierce is:
LOVE, n. A temporary insanity curable by marriage or by removal of the patient from the influences under which he incurred the disorder. This disease, like caries and many other ailments, is prevalent only among civilized races living under artificial conditions; barbarous nations breathing pure air and eating simple food enjoy immunity from its ravages. It is sometimes fatal, but more frequently to the physician than to the patient.

A feeling which you very rarley come across and when you do, you find yourself doing everything within your power to make sure it has no way of dissapearing. You feel this one person could keep a smile and more upon your face for the rest of your days, you feel that feeling where you have to swallow because your thoughts are becoming too much, will go on forever. In fact, you know. No matter who tells you any different you carry on thinking the agape love towards your significent other. You'd give up all you had and not expect it to ever come back again, just for this one person. You would tell this person at every chance possible that you love them and not even suspect that it was being overused, because everytime you would use it, you would mean it, you would feel it, you would realise that this actually saying was nothing compared to what you woudld actually like them to know, but in fact was the closest way of telling them. You would never imagine a day without them in it, you would never imagine a night without them by your side, you would never imagine a dream without them not leaving you within an inch. Love is undescriable and therefore my feelings can only be written down amongst a bunch of words and then left to be read and understood by ones self who feels this prodigious feeling too.
i love you and if you only try to understand that, youll know a minute feeling of what i feel for you

Friend #1: But... You let go of the past friend. You give into love.
Friend #2: What?... Are you God or a prophet now! (Said with knowing eyes and a wink of approval)

Bob: What was the name of that love song we listened to on the radio yesterday...?
Jerry: Which one? There's billions.

Love... chances are you've heard this world spoken many times. You could have heard it around you, in a song, in a movie, or perhaps you've said it or have had it said to you. The chances also are that this world may not have held much meaning. Love could be such a strong word, but the fact remains that it's been said so many times it's almost hard to determine when it's actually meant. If said to someone who's not related and a potential 'significant other', this word can be dangerous. Oftentimes it's used as a trick, to get something out of another person. However, there's always one time, one glimmer in the dark, when someone speaks it and it holds the true meaning. Have you ever seen an old couple argue, and then moments later talk on like nothing happened? That's love. They're so comfortable with each other they can handle it. Have you ever seen a young girl, perhaps 10, say something to the extent of, "I love my boyfriend, we've been dating for a week and every time I see him I get butterflies in my stomach!"? That's NOT love. That's something else, something I've yet to understand.
Love is a truly great feeling, if you're lucky enough to truly feel it. It's like a roller-coaster, only it involves your mental being also. It's truly indescribable, though I know that love knows no age. I also know that yes, it does hurt when it's over. Not all love lasts forever... sometimes it's too young to withstand distance, or even the corrosion of time. Of all the things I've learned in school... the one thing I'm the most certain of is something they could never teach in a classroom. Love is most certainly worth the ride, even when it ends. Never regret something that once made you smile, and hold fast to the memories, not the emotions.

Love is said way too often, but a mother and her child, or an old couple... those are two perfect examples. Love can belong to family and friends too, you know. Not just someone who you 'like'.
