Love. What is it really? Does it have a proper definition or is it one of those things that just happens sometimes? I've never quite understood love. It makes no sense to me. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to it, and it certainly never explains itself or takes accountability for its actions.

The only love I ever knew had strings attached to it: no public displays of affection, no staying the night, no getting caught. The love I knew could last for a few hours a few days a week. There was just too much at risk, as he always said.

I never really got the point of love. Why did it exist in the first place? It only seemed to make a certain percentage of people happy, leaving the rest of us in the shadows. 

But that doesn't mean I never craved it. Everyone wants to feel loved in some way, shape, or form, and I was no different. I wanted something real, something that even when times got hard, I could count on lasting a long time. Something I could look back on and not regret. But from a young age, I knew there were just certain things I couldn't have. Love, I suppose, was one of them.
