Love is....

Love is patient and kind they said.
Love is universal and eternal
And with it, comes great pain.
But yet, it is worth the wait.
That is what they told me.....
I say love is what shapes us.
I say love is only universal to those who are willing to open their hearts to it, and give back as well.
I say love can be the greatest thing to ever happen to you, But it is also the worst pain you have ever felt when it is gone.
I say love carries itself with the power to completely change a person, But it can be your greatest weakness at the same time. 
Love comes in many different shapes, sizes, and suprises.
Love is not something that is taught... not like teaching a child to walk, talk, or eat.
But we as humans just naturally gravitate towards it, and we adapt to it.
So isn't it ironic that....
One word-
Four letters-
One syllable-
carries a million different meanings,
but hold the same concept in any language, culture,society, and any time period since the beginning of time.
................Love is all that I've ever known.
