What Word Means More Than Love Novels & Stories

I feel that soon I will own ITSU. Imagine me, love. That is a higher level of oxymoron, patching me and the word love in one sentence like that. People can be so creative with words. They make me want to bow down often, especially when they whine about love ‘conquers all’. Who believes any of that? They make it sound so great, like it is the only purpose of living, and as if without it, life is meaningless. And going as far as believing that love is joy? Heck, I have seen people cry because of love! Love is unconditional? Old men leave their wives every now and then for a younger woman. Love is selflessness? Tell me about love in the presence of ‘I’. Everything is ‘I’ these days.

“You expect me to believe that? The word you are looking for is called ‘lust’.” “No, no! I mean love but not the kind of love I have for my father or my mother. There was something that ‘pushed’ me to her.” “What do you mean ‘pushed’?” Velsusi was getting irritated again. “I can’t explain it very well…I don’t understand those things very well.” “And I suppose you think I do?” “I would think so.” “Yvayn, I have never really loved another person that way…it wasn’t meant for me to.”

"Because love means nothing." The thudding of her heart reverberated in her ears, drowning out the sounds of the room as she forged ahead, her hands clammy within the confines of her gloves, her skin flushed with a mixture of nerves and fervor. "Allow me to posit that perhaps your perspective is skewed because you've never truly experienced love in its purest form. Love..." she paused, her voice hitching with emotion, "It transcends boundaries. It surpasses the confines of loyalty and devotion. It reaches depths that loyalty alone cannot fathom."

Her gaze locked onto mine, filled with anticipation. "What's that?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "I love you," I declared, my words pouring out like a confession. Ruth's cheeks flushed, and she leaned in closer. "I love you too," she replied, her voice filled with conviction. But I needed her to understand. "No, Ruth," I said, my eyes burning with intensity. "I love you more than words can say. More than any universe, any galaxy, any star." I pulled her closer, our lips inches apart.

When Pastora Vien said that the love we’re all looking for isn’t as strong as His for us, I was slugged by the truth. When I said that Love is Patient, and I can wait for the time Axl will say his love to me, there is a stronger love than that. When my father said that Love is Happiness, maybe he wasn’t really talking about the love that ends. It’s about the Love that’s never ending. It is about Him. Masuyo pa rin akong yakap-yakap ni Pastora habang binubuhos ko ang mga luha ko. Lord, I was never there. I never really believed you, but I hope I’m not yet late. Please, let me in.

Her soul will be pleased to see you with her daughter because she knows that you love her daughter more than anything else'. He pursed his lips and added, 'About Hea, Yes, love is a tough thing, but at least take action toward it. Try to make her realise that you have special feelings for her. At the very least, show her openly that you are there for her not as a brother, not as a best friend, but as a special person'.

Why call her anything else when she has a name so beautiful? Every day I find myself more in love in with her. Every day that passes by draws me closer to her. Over the last so many days that we have been talking, I have been meaning to ask her what I mean to her, if I do mean anything at all. I want to ask her whether she sees me as a potential boyfriend, but I will not, because I don’t believe in the terms ‘boyfriend’ and ‘girlfriend’. These terms are too frivolous and are just used to introduce people. I believe more in the word ‘soulmate’. It makes so much sense. When you’re in love, it’s meant for life, isn’t it? If not, then what defines love? A cup of coffee shared together? A drink?
