Analysis of The Meaning of To Be Loved



To be loved is fulfilling
A feeling that gives life meaning
To be loved satisfies a person's well being
When needs are demanding, people require care
Even when a loved one is not there
To be loved is an expression of emotion
Without a special potion
To be loved is the natural ability
To reciprocate another without agility
