Love, a fickle thing?

This is something I think about often and always wanted to write about. The topic is young love.

Its a weird topic to talk about to say the least, some young people these days are very willing to open themselves up to these feelings and then there are many who have never even felt that way about another person and believe that these feelings cant exist. I personally am part of the first category, Ive opened myself up to a few girls in my past and its always wonderful when you do. For those of you who have no clue whats its like to "love" someone other than your family its quite hard to put into words, you cherish everything about the other person, you enjoy their warmth, their kiss, their laughter and when you look them in the eyes you feel trapped in that moment with them forever. These feelings are what i live for, as you can see im a romantic. But theres the harsh truth that you can love someone and that person will not be the person you grow old with, thats just not how it works and this is the reason why people ask

"Is it better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all?"

I dont know how I feel about this, the heartbreak is always the hardest part of noticing the two of you aren't meant to be with each other forever as true "soulmates". As a matter of fact is anybody true soulmates? With 6,668,006,437 people on the planet as of this morning couldnt there be more than one person that you could have these feelings for? Of course there could. Why does one need to look so far down the line when spending time with someone, couldnt you just enjoy each other in the time you have whilest still in love? Why does everything need to be so focused on the future when no one knows if they will see tomorrow.

Life is the one that is fickle, not love.
