Got this one from akosikai's blog - only fools die... Its really nice so I asked kai if I could repost it.

A conversation with Desire..


ROSE: Have you ever been in love?
DESIRE: You might say that.
ROSE: Horrible, isn't it?
DESIRE: In what way?
ROSE: It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens your heart and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...
You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day like kiss you, or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.
Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like "Maybe we should just be friends" or "How very perceptive" turns into a glass splinter working its way to your heart.
DESIRE: How picturesque.
ROSE: It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. Nothing should be able to do that.
Especially not love.
I hate love.

"love is a noble act of self-giving, offering your trust, faith and loyalty. the more you love the more you loose a part of you yet you don't become less of who you are... instead you end up being complete." - anonymous. got this from an old scrapbook I've been keeping for years.

love is one delightful feeling and I pitty those people who didnt risk to fall because of the mere reason that they fear to be miserable. lami gyud ang feeling na mainlove ug e love... lami mahigugma. hehe... cornyha oi! haha! ge nalang gud! ;p

and at the end of this journey, my wonderful story begins...
