love is selfish love is bickering love is settling love is destructive love is struggling love is being afraid love is claustrophobic love is one sided love is being lonely love is manipulation love is, as and when love is anger love is antagonistic love is feeling lost love is betrayal, love is for the kids' sake, love is demeaning love is self serving and unkind love is losing yourself this           is now my truth love is comfortable love is feeling alive love is sharing and caring love is friendship love is liking him/her love is in the easy silence and in the laughter, and sharing the detail love is the fun and the silliness, love is everything I thought it could not possibly be, love is within our grasp love is in the unexpected love is sometimes letting go, because you must, love is forever saz x
