Four letter words.

Hate.
Fish.
Fuck.
Feel.
Love. Fool.
After heartfelt, shaken up posts andother coherant events I have begun to wonder...
Is it really better to have loved an lost than never to have loved at all?
Even if the ache lasts longer than the addiction?
Even if heartbreak overcomes hope?
When life is surreal and happiness a distant dream?
When you begin to question everything including yourself?
Because you were joint at the hip and have time on your hands.
Because cognitive capacities are challenged and can't keep pace.
Is love really as wonderful when its unrequited?
One things for sure it makes for brilliant reading, as do most other tradgedies, including death. Its much harder to steal a heart with wonderful stories as opposed to woeful ones, of that I am certain, but I digress.
Is love really blindness and butterflies?
Sensuality and speechlessness?
That smell in her hair, the look on his face. Her vain innocence and his vain attempts to impress.
Is it ever unconditional? Forever?
Does it lead to loss of basic instincts?
Can we really live on love and fresh air?
Ain't no sunshine when (s)he's gone?
Is it possible to love at first sight?
Or Is love just overrated?
Is it worth the eternal search?
The questions of some one for everyone? (scientifically speaking this is impossible)
Having never loved or lost I wonder, but I really wouldn't know.
Lust. Love. Laugh. Love. Like. Love. Loss. Still love.

very soul-searching post, girl. i do think it's better to have loved and lost. scientific theories are bullshit and nothing's ever unconditional... but this is part of life, however good or bad it may be... it's part of the life that we've been born with an intention to to live... if we give life a miss, what else do we have left?

>never to have loved at all?

I'd rather have never loved at all.. A lost love., no matter what keep lingering in a corner of your head and keep irritating you when you notice a similar move., or word.. its like a permanent wound in the bottom of your heart..

Love for me is all that you mentioned above and more..what more??you ask.Well i dont know...and i don't even want to know..There r no rules buddy so there can't be any fixed patterns or reactions..

But ya all said and done IT IS better to have been loved and lost than not been loved at all! It's up to you how you take heartbreak as a part of life and move on...

good post.

You do seem confused, girl. If this is part of your life, them you have to find the answers yourself.
BTW, great post! :)

A resounding YES.

Its all a big rollercoaster ride - you are excited one moment, queasy in the stomach another, scared one moment, ready to let go another. In the end, it makes for great stories and memories,albeit some painful.

Hey! I've mostly been a silent reader of your blog. But this post left me wondering...for a long time. And i'd have to agree with most of the people...YES to all the questions! Yes, it IS better to have loved and lost than...
U get the drift ;-)

Karuna,

Ajay:

Samuraijack:
Thanks :)

Khizzy:
Rushing you? How?
I apologize... i have no such intention.

Anshul:
Really? I can only see the questions, answers continue to elude.

Rita:
Not really a part of my life, i hope to find the answers... eventually...

Ms. Iyer:
Aww... dont be so hard on yourself.

Monk:
So do i :)
And wishful thinkers blog is testimony to that...

Jax:

Vijayeta:
Yeayea, i think i do.

Just a human:

It depends. Did you get the house and the car after splitting up?
