>>>Do you think a deep affection or fondness for a person could be love?<<<

Most certainly!

True love is all about respecting someone with a deep intense affection and also feeling a sexual passion for someone too. When you're in love with someone, it doesn't matter how far away you are from that person, your every thought is with them no matter what you are doing and not with anyone else. You can be doing something and all of a sudden something within triggers and sets off a memory and your thoughts are with the person you're in love with. Your only desire is to be with the one person you happen to be in love with and not to have a multitude of other lovers as well! It's all about respecting those we love the most.

I'm not sure if I've defined love all that well because it's not something I talk freely about with just anyone apart to the person i happen to love or be in love with.

Sometimes it can be difficult to tell those you really love just how we feel about them, but it's always advisable to tell them just the same because sometimes our busy lives can flash by us and we may never get the opportunity to tell that someone just how much we really care!

Tazjet, I love the poem you posted.
