everything is illuminated

A. What if love is not wanting to be with someone all the time, wanting them all to yourself and being afraid that they are going to leave you?

(because I know I've never felt that way)

B. What if instead love means being able to look at someone and think, it does not exactly matter if you go or stay here with me because, in the end, what you are inspiring me to create in my own heart right now is FAR cooler than anything you are capable of taking away?

Love may not be as desperate as A, but it certainly shouldn't be as indifferent as B.
