Love Lost To Lust -

Love Lost To Lust -

A Story by Dakota R. Lane

 

What is it that causes a man to fall in love, for love is not a male instinct but an instinct of a woman? For a woman knows of passion and emotion, thus the vital elements that make a feeling love.

For Love is a complex of emotions, happiness, sorrow, joy, and despair. Yet, what makes a man worth of such a priceless treasure that is so freely given to him that he throws it away with no appreciation for it. For man knows no emotion, a foreign ideal to him. For he is taught not to feel, for to feel is feminine, thus he is no longer a man.

Yet even then this feeling grips his soul in a way that he can not understand nor does he comprehend. He is mesmerized by it, yet terrified by it for it is not tangible. How does a man who knows no feeling explain a feeling? Thus the feeling becomes deluded and its value lost to a physical lust and tarnished.

I see, but it does appear to carry an undertone of pain, and perhaps, rage.

neither, its an observation of human emotions and the differences between those feelings. a contradiction of the mind, a paradox of rational and irrational thought at war with itself conflicted between the physical and emotional reason.

You are indeed a deep thinker of life, and it's many meanings.
This could keep ones mind going for a long time...LOVE.
Women know of many emotions of the heart, but to have
a man know passion, and love, well, the world would just be
perfect:). I think most men are scared of their emotions, of losing
their cool, their control. Just my opinion. Men think we as women
are foreign, never figure us out, but men are just as hard to read,
because they tend to hide so much within that a woman just never
knows where she stands or other things for that matter. I think
that's where getting lost in communication comes in too.

Maybe, sometimes the only way a man can really express himself is
lust, through sex. Just a thought. It can become tarnished because
a woman then feels used, and that is all she is good for. You did
make one think on these words:).
