Why does love, something that is considered a basic human emotion, have to be so hard? Why do people insist on hiding their emotion, on playing games, on using people? I've never understood how something as basic as love can tear people apart, destroy them. I am no different, and still I don't understand.

I was in love. I was in love, and willing to do anything for him. I was promised the world, only to have him turn around and tell me he never really loved me in the first place. Why put up the pretenses? Why pretend to feel something when there is nothing there?

Why is it so easy for some people to be adored, loved, and others seem to never find it. Is it that some people are truely unloveable? Or are they just searching for love in the wrong places? Why are some people magnets for love and affection, and others have nothing?

Do those people that have so much love in their life appriciate it? Or are they only out to see how many people they can have trip over them, gathering hearts like children gather easter eggs? Do they take love so that others won't be able to find it? Scoring themselves on how many people they now hold the key to their heart?

Why is it so hard? Why isn't there more love in the world? Why can't people be honest in how they feel, not play those games. If you love someone, tell them, but if you don't, let them be so that they will be able to find real love. Real love, the kind that dreams are made of.

I'm always searching, but I can never find it. I have never been given that key to someone's heart. Sometimes I wonder if I am unloveable, the kind of person that is destined to move through life alone.
