The wind that fills your sails

"I wanna be the wind that fills your sails Be the hand that lifts your veil Be the moon that moves your tides And the sun coming up in your eyes Be the wheel that never rusts And be the spark that lights you up All that you been dreaming of and more So much more I wanna be your everything When you wake up I'd be the first thing you see And when it gets dark you can reach out to me I'd cherish your words And I'd finish your thoughts And I'll be your compass when you get lost"

Beautiful, isn't it.. The lyrics just make you smile.. The magic sensation created by the power of love.. Love.. What exactly is it? I tried to understand it.. Asked some people.. The responses were pretty different..

B****N* :
Love is...My family and friends..

V**E*** : Love is the feeling or emotion we have towards that person we care about, towards whom we always wanna see smiling.. The root of all relations...
V**A* : Faces of people come to mind..It is love, happiness, pain, sadness, joy, care, concern, kindness all in one.. Trust is another important thing..
S**I**L* : It is about waking up to message you back at this time (Time Check: 3.45am) :)

All the responses are pretty different but they all have one thing in common..They involve strong positive emotions.. Emotions that make you want to give, to do anything to make the other person smile, to want to be the reason to bring sunshine into that one person's life, to care about someone, to want to take care of someone and ensure that nothing can hurt that person, to want to be able to take away any kind of pain or discomfort from that person cuz you cannot take it seeing them cry.. To want to wake up each morning to their thoughts, to thinking of them each night before you close your eyes, to spending time with them in your dreams.. To wanting to make that dream a reality by working towards spending a lifetime together..

When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.. There is a security in it.. You know it's safe with them... When you hear them say your name, you feel this sensation within you that you cannot describe..It just stands out from everyone else.. Love is when someone hurts you but you don't yell back at them cuz you don't want to hurt them back..It is giving someone the power to affect you with the tiniest things they say.. Giving them control over your thoughts and feelings.. Love is the one thing that makes you smile even when you're really exhausted.. At the end of a hard day when you can't even feel your muscles move anymore, when nothing seems to be right, and you just want to give up and then the thought of that person crosses your mind, and you smile.. I guess that is love.. Despite distance and lack of communication and stuff and you end up missing them but yet nothing changes in the way you feel.. When weeks and months pass and you don't know what's happening, yet you feel the same each time you hear from them or feel your heart skip a beat when their name is mentioned, I guess that's love.. When time and distance are not factors.. When everything seems negative but you decide to stay positive and hold on.. When you feel something deep down inside that nobody else would... I guess that's love.. When you meet so many people each day and get to know how nice other people can be, yet your heart still goes back to the thoughts of that one person.. When you see people walking along, when you see people in relationships, when you don't look at them with envy for being with the ones they love, but you actually smile thinking of that one person in your mind, I guess that's love.. Love is not needing to be there, it's knowing that somewhere they are around and in some way they touched you in a way nobody else possibly could.. I guess that's when you know you are in love..
No summers high
No warm july
No harvest moon to light one tender august night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
No even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No libra sun
No halloween
No giving thanks to all the christmas joy you bring
But what it is
Though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do.

Magical, isn't it? Oh well, I think I have been rambling.. Somethings may not make sense cuz it's alot of my own thoughts that I have written.. Things running through my mind.. so I guess it may not make sense.. :) anyway it's all your fault that i started this post!! And now it's got me thinking... Haha
