Love, a commonly misused word. To know love, one must first hate. To hate, one must first love. LOve is the paradox that defines humanity. A person stands at the alter one moment and sits in a courtroom the next. To love, is to be alive.

I wrote this poem because I can't help but notice how people confuse love with infatuation.
