Have you ever been in love?


horrible, isn't it?
it makes you so vonerable.
it opens your chest and opens up your heart.
and it means someone can get into there, into your heart, and mess you up.
you built up all these defenses, you built up a whole suit of armor;
so that nothing can hurt you.
then some stupid person, no different from every other stupid person,
comes into your stupid life..
you give them a piece of you.
they didn't ask for it.
they did something dumb one day;
like kiss or smile at you,
then your life isn't your own anymore.
love takes hostiges. it  gets inside you.
it eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness.
it hurts. not just in the imagianation.
not just in your mind. its a soul-hurt.
a real, gets-inside-of-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.

I hate love.
