Love isn't Love until it's Gone

My favorite Prince song is "Sometimes it Snow's in April". You probably don't know about this song unless you are a true Prince fan. It's off of the Under the Cherry Moon soundtrack. The very last thing he says as the song goes off is "Love isn't Love until it's gone". This is one of the most profound statements I have ever heard!

Love isn't Love until it's Gone. In the song he is talking about a friend that has passed... but I relate it to relationships. Have you ever had a guy call you up months after a break up... maybe even years later and say you were a "Great Girl" and he messed up or he tries to get you back after he puts you through a lot of crap. This man probably did love you... but at some point he began to take you for granted, wanted to explore his options, thought he had a better option or just plane messed up and let you go.

Every guy has "The one that got away"... which is a very dangerous thing, because every girl after her will be compared to "The one that got away". Once you have been in love and for whatever reason it ended... is it possible to be in love again? Are you comparing your current relationship to the relationship with the person you loved? Did you think you were in love and met somebody new that exceeded that... and thought what could I have been thinking? Are you ready able and willing to be loved?

Love isn't Love until it's gone... If Love isn't Love until it's gone... I guess we are all screwed!!! But it's deeper than Love... It's being "In Love" and there is a difference. Loving somebody mean you don't want anything bad to happen to them, if you could help them in a situation... You would. But being "In Love" means that person is the first thing you think about when you wake up and the last thing you think about before you go to sleep and every minute in between.
