A Factor of L

I love you. This is usually reserved for those I claim as close friends and family, but it's never been said to anyone I've dated or been in a relationship with. There are those I've thought I could see myself say it to. There have been those that wanted to say it to me, but I could not in return, and there has been only one that I thought I would say it to, and receive it back, before our abrupt end. We knew our relationship had an end date, but still started something. But alas, my move came.

I strongly feel these words in a relationship should not be thrown around all willy nilly. If I say them, I am absolutely giving myself away, and expect the same back. Yes, this sounds heavy, I've been told that this fades for those in love, and I've seen it happen. Maybe I can blame my desire on my cosmic makings, being born under the sign of Venus. Venus, you minx. I could go into a bunch of the cliches I can see myself in, but instead, I'll simply put; Love, this is what I can only hope to find.
