What is "love"?

How does one define love?

I have come to the realization that love cannot be readily defined by mere words. It can only be defined by feelings and emotions; and, at best, by the words that are used to describe those  feelings and emotions.

Hope
Anticipation
Excitement

The feeling that something wonderful is about to happen; or, even better, that something wonderful is already happening.

Contentment
Completion
Wholeness
Acceptance
Belief

This is love.

You are love.

You are love and love is you, a neverending source of happiness.

Time evaporates with you...
