When Love is a burden

To love and be loved, such an amazing feeling. Its this tingling sensation that creeps underneath your skin and tickles your heart when you see them smile, like a refreshing shower on a hot summer day, its the warmth and securety that their embrace brings, its the endless silly late night conversations that gets ur attention, well its prolly their voice that gets ur attention rather than what they say. If you want to know what desire is, look into lovers eyes as they meet, passion in their kiss. No one can ever underestimate the power of love, wars were started and people got killed in the name of love ( de javu?? ) .. But love doesnt always look likr fairy tales or cheesy love movies. Love can be a responsibility, love can toxic and love can be a burden.
Love can indeed be a burden, such a heavt burden. Its when its one sided and its forced on you. Everyone is grateful when they are loved but sometimes it can fireback and hurt both parties.
Imagine knowing some one who falls in love with you and demand your love back.. you get all that attention and love that you never asked for and then a check at the end demanding you to love them the same way... Thats when love becomes a burden.. Thats when things get ugly.. You ask them to stop loving you, coz most of the time, ppl cant control how they feel.. And you cant force yourself to love them back.. Thats such a sad sad situation to be in.. I know that, coz ive been there..
But you know whats even sadder.. When you are the one forcing your love on some one else , even though you"ve been in their shoe before, and not knowing how to stop...
Your pain doubles up; the pain of being rejected and feeling their pain now that uve been in their place before...

Im starting to realize that love and pain co exist together, where there is love, there is pain..
It has been proven in studies that the brain area that gets activated during drugs withdrawal is the same area that gets activated during heart breaking. It has also shows that even emotional/psychological pain activates pain receptors in ur brain n whats more interesting is that taking pain killers like tylenol can sometimes ease off PSYCHOLOGICAL pain..

Emotions are such a complex thing..
