~~~~~ ~~~~~ What is Love? ~~~~~ ~~~~~
Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times.
It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.
Love is content with the present, it hopes for the future, and it doesn't brood over the past. It's the day-in, day-out chronicle of irritations, compromises, small disappointments, big victories, and working towards common goals.
If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things that you lack.
If you don't have it, no matter what else you have, it's not enough.
It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.

I really enjoyed reading this poem and think it defines and describes love well. And how the void one can feel in life without it.
Here is hoping all who seek true love here are blessed with their hearts desire

Dearest Buffybear.
The words and your thoughts are like Pearls and Diamonds. I appreciate it very much.
I add some words and thoughts of mine.
Love Is Based On Respect Care and Understanding.
Love Is Fire Start from Eyes With Connection of Soul.
In Love When Fire lits
Then Mind Thoughts and Thinking Start for The Unknown Person
Love Take Its Place From Both side Attention required
Love Have No Boundaries Love Is Risk Love Has Hurdles
Love Is Pure Honest Loyal and No Material involved
Love is Care Respect Understanding And Forgiveness
Love Is Admiring Little things Love Is Appreciating The Opposite
Love is Love Medicine for both Male and Female
With Regard and Forgiveness
