on the topic of true love

Ah, True Love....

Some of us have found it,
Some of us have longed for it,
Some of us still long for it...

Some think they have found it,
Some have...

The former want to know how the latter did it, and how do you know?

I have walked the desert of lovelessness,
I have walked in the forest of love's illusions,
I have danced in the joy of real love.

True love isn't finding someone to complete you.
I don't think you find true love until you are already complete.
Rather, I feel you find true love when you are close to realizing your completeness, or at least, are not trying to fill the void of your illusion of incompleteness.

True love is a compliment, not a completion. 
True love doesn't ride up on a white horse with the wind blowing in his/her hair.
True love is for the daring, the fearless, the bold.

If you ask, "where do I find my true love?", I will say, look within...
find your true love, yourself,
only then can you find a companion to share in your journey. 

If you don't appreciate yourself, why should someone else?
