The Dictionary’s Thoughts on Love


Love
What is love?
Love is an overly overused word
That has been overused even before 900 B.C
It’s in mainstream songs that bust through the radio
It is all over the corny TV shows
And it is constantly uttered through the naïve lips of hopeless teenagers
Heck, it’s even in English class while studying the romantic,
 which I would like to call cheesy,
“Romeo and Juliet”
So seriously, what is love?!
According to “Dictionary.com”, love is defined as the following:
“1. a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
2. a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.
3. sexual passion or desire.
4. a person toward whom love is felt; beloved person; sweetheart.”
It even provides synonyms:
“Tenderness, fondness, predilection, warmth, passion, adoration, affection, devotion.”
And of course, we can’t forget about the Antonyms:
“Hatred, dislike, detest, hate. “
So if thou yearn to ask me
“what is love?”
All I can say to thee is …
“Whatcha’ askin’ me for! Go look it up in the dictionary!”
