Love

Whenever I'm given the opportunity to go out alone (Yes, that happens.) I tend to see couples wandering. On my part, it hurts whenever I see couples like that. I wasn't blessed to be in a relationship. I wasn't even blessed with the slightest gift of a handsome face. (I am obviously not handsome.) We live in an age where people fall in love because of what they see. I'm not referring to actions either. I'm referring to what meets the eye, face value.

Really, I don't quite understand why love revolves around face value so much. There used to be a time when love revolved around how the person was formed. Whenever I would think about it, I question how the concept of love now came to be. Love for friends? Love for family? Love? Love? Please, I didn't give up on love. Love gave up on me.
