If I could choose to be anything in the world, I would choose to be loved

If you have known love, you will understand

Do you know what love is? I will tell you

Love is beautiful

Love is so beautiful

And it’s so much more than kissing and smooching

It’s so much more than the passions of the flesh on a drunken night while ovulating

It’s so much more than joining bodies

It’s so much more than sex

Love is nothing compared, as rare as a diamond

Love is pure and patient and kind

Love is them and you and God in between, holding it all together

Just the sheer vulnerability in opening up and sharing emotions and communicating

and trusting the person, and opening up your heart to the idea of them in your life, the idea of them actually seeing you as someone special, something special, that is so beautiful

That is so precious

Love is peace

Who wouldn’t do anything to exchange random meaningless stuff for an ounce of love?

As ethereal as it is divine, void of superficiality

Love sees you

Love hears you

Love knows you

Love understands you

Love waits for you

Love stays with you

Love shows you with their actions

Love doesn’t give up on you

Love persists

Love is unconditional

Love is patient

Love is kind

Love is joyful

Love separates the good from the bad

Love separates the joy from the sadness

Love fills you with hope

Love makes you giddy with excitement

Love makes you serious about your life and their life

And who wouldn’t want that?

Who wouldn’t want to be loved?

Who wouldn’t want to be cared for and nurtured?

Who wouldn’t want to be hugged and kissed and catered to?

Who wouldn’t want their other half?

Their soulmate

The Eve to their Adam, or Adam to their Eve

Who wouldn’t want an Eden-on-earth experience?

God did a thing when he created love

Oh wait, God didn’t just create love, God is love.

If I could choose to be anything in the world, I would choose to be loved

If you have known love, you will understand.
