Love Story

Why Does Love Hurt?

Have you ever been in love before? What did it feel like? You must have felt like the happiest human on planet earth. Yea, that's love.

I have felt that way one certain time. I am not talking about crush 'cos everyone must have had a crush on someone sometime. That is a sure one. Well, I didn't really know what love was till I met this man, Joseph. He came to me in the name of the Lord and I was like waoh! Earlier on, I had. Prayed for a God sent. A man from God as a life partner.

I didn't really accept him until after 2 years, though he was always on my mind. I wanted to be with him from the start but I was too timid to break the relationship I was in and claim him as my parcel/gift.

When I finally broke the tie, I accepted him. The funniest thing is that he was waiting for me. When I finally accepted him, I was the happiest woman in earth. There was this joy I felt in me just knowing I had him. I was so magnificent that I could have done anything just to be with him and have him by my side. It was like heaven on earth. You must have been there if not try experiencing it. It is worth it.

Things didn't really stay cosy. We started experiencing problems that lovers encounter, but ours was beyond limit. The sweet feeling I had from the beginning started decipating gradually and I felt like l had lost him. The love of my life. I needed his attention but he was too busy to give it. He needed my submission but I was too hurt to obey. Like a child's play communication was cut down to once in a blue moon. I was not happy. I guess he wasn't either. I thought maybe I should lay my cards on the table and beg him to come back to me. Can love hurt this much? I ask myself. I pain I feel within me is more than any physical injury. I don't enjoy any other company cos I yearn for his.(sigh). We have become familiar strangers. So pathetic isn't it?

I want the man I fell in love with. The man whose smile is entrancing. I could stare at him forever. I could tell him anything and bare my very soul to hi.

'Oh life! What have you done with my love? Why have you taken him from me? Oh my love where are you? Please come back to my awaiting heart. Please come home.

Have you ever felt this frustrated or been in this situation before? Write and tell your experience and how you overcame it. If you are still faced with such problem like myself, stay tuned to read the response of others.

Yours friend, Christiana Joseph.
