Defining the definition

How do you define love?
Unrequited, heart wrentching?
Passionate and thirst quenching?
A gift from the vast universe?
Finding the one for whom you've searched?
Aching, crushing, needing?
outpouring, giving, heart bleeding?
The one who detroyed me,
the one who completes me.
The one who wont leave me,
the one who left me.
The one who never loved me,
the one who loves only me.
Love can be poison,
Love can be prison,
with another it can be a vision.
It can be the great golden key,
that will set your heart free.
With you it was encompassing,
I bloomed as a flower in spring,
I wilted as a tree in winters cold,
I died in my sleep like the old.
We danced, laughed and cheered,
yelled, cried, and jeered.
Our defintion is unique,
when love are the words we speak.
