Human beings are now suffering from an injury so severe, spreading so quickly, that no reasonable doctor or friend can save one person from unbearable pain. It starts with an ache in your chest, a sore throat from the screaming out, and red eyes from the tears that seem to constantly fall down the cheeks of every child, adult, and senior citizen in the United States. It is a disease that seems to be unstoppable and it's getting in every corner of our world. Teeangers die from it more and more every day, senior citizens suffer in it every day they live, and adults are prescribed deppression pills more these days to be able to stand the pain of this disease. And this disease is the number one cause of the suffering of more then a million human beings in the United States.

The victim can do one of two things. She/he can live through their existence and try their best to forget the one who had once been there everything then ripped them to shreds. Or, they can do what million of teenagers do every day. Suicide. As the quote goes, 'love is the slowest form of suicide'.

And there is also unrequited love. This kind of love is the most awful of them all. One gives there heart and soul to one person and finds the love is not returned. And yet, love is still being given to the one that is undeserving. If we love with such passion, why do we live without the same amount of it? Love has caused so many of us to break down in sudden tears, but do we take in account when we break another's
