Dedicated to: Pepper Lemon who requested a drabble off of the phrase 'and in the end the love you make is equal to the love you take'. I found this one really difficult actually and I'm not sure if it followed what you had in mind but...I did my best. XD

Love is...
"What is love?" Young Severus Snape asked his mother.
It was a rare moment of peace in the house as Mr. Snape was out aon business and Mrs. Snape and Severus were taking advantage of the calm.
"Why would you ask such a thing?"
Severus flushed, "It was in a book, it spoke of 'true love'."
She cupped his face, "It is not something I can explain. one day you'll just know, I hope."
In the end, Severus did understand. As darknes clouded his vision until all he could see was a pair of green eyes he knew.
Love is...
