It feels GREAT when you're in love. You feel like the world just can't get any better, but ironically, it does, when your loved one does something to please you so much you feel like doing the same for them except on a bigger scale. You wake up with a smile on your face, and look forward to life.

It sucks when you're loveless. When you get rejected or when you are craving for that elusive love. When you see other couples basking in love and you are so envious. Jealousy is a double-edged sword; we need it to stay sane; yet we've wished a million times that we could live our lives without it. It produces a pain so deep that even YOU are not sure how profound it actually is.
What about the famous saying: If you really love someone, you got to let them free? Yeah sure it might work, but love's not going to go easy on you, probably proceeding to rub salt in your wound by always making that someone, together with their loved one, appear wherever you are. You'd look at them and smile, and give your blessings; but in your heart, which is probably already non-existent; another hole has just been pierced, although your heart is already so ridden with holes it seems impossible. Yet you encourage yourself that what you did is right, "See how happy he/she is!". It is bittersweet; though it is so much more bitter that you'd rather accept feeling null, than having some sweetness that is accompanied by the wretched bitterness.
