People travel a great distance just to be with someone the love. But how is love truely measured. By distance or by extent. By power or by status.
Distance: The distance you'd travel
Extent: The extent you'd tolerate. The extent you adore. The extent you yearn for.
Power: The strength you feel to overpower or manipulate? or use to gain for both parties
Status: To achieve. To climb. To exceed. In social standing maybe?
Well. After all i've seen or rather been through.. I have learnt many things.
Love is measured by Patience. Kindness. Understanding. and most of all.. happiness.
If i could fall
into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
Cause you know i'd
Walk a thousand miles
If i could just
Say...
-goodbye-
The greatest journey is then either love or looking for love.
What is love? Some people go by a life time sleeping beside someone they think they are in love with. They think they know everything. Of course this assumption is based on knowing fav colour..fav food..fav sport..dream job. But how often we find that the love fades. it was all a facade. They never knew anything and loved for all the wrong reasons.
Love is loving though you have nothing in common.. Love is Seeing not only looking. Love is never letting go of her/his hand even though you're at this major function and she/he doesnt know anyone.. Love is protecting even from your best friends. Love is being loyal.. Love is being frank.
I may not be able to list down eveythng about love. but i do know a lot about it. As you grow.. well being grow.. spirit grow.. you see what's around you and look for more in what you want. and what you need
Even though it's hard and you cant seem to get a hold of it. You hang around long enough to see what happens next. and if the next moment it is within reach
Now what is looking for love?
Looking for love is probably the hardest thing to anyone. It hurts like hell. It is the only thing in life that you feel most pain for and most happiness for. All at the same time. Looking for love.. what do we know about looking for love.
The pain we see in our friends faces as they move on. The hurt you see in your mothers eyes when she's searching for the love they once shared. The failure you feel when you search and cant find although you see it right in front of you.
The greatest journey.. is undisputedly being in love.
The most you do. The most you do that you never knew you'd be able to do. The furthest NOT in distance you'd go, for the one you love. Being in love. What do i know.. What have i felt.
When i was in love. I let it happen.. fall too deep to let go. Hang on too long to forget. It shattered me time and again. and again.. and again.. i couldnt even pick myself up.
It has been the greatest journey for me casue i learnt that without sufferring there will be no happiness. i learnt it the hard way. i believe the hardest way for my age. I'm not wasting my youth on stupid things and people that give me shit. i'll take it one day at a time.
What was the happiness? The happiness was finally letting go. The air i breathed.
Then it settled in...........
It's hard to love again. It's hard to open up.. It's hard to be who i once was. It's hard to be strong. It's hard to be me. But somehow i just....
