Fantastic piece. A bit of a tangent: I've thought about something similar as well, not specific to love but just how often words just aren't enough to communicate what I'm feeling internally about certain things or people. This happens most frequently with art, when I watch a movie or listen to an album that connects with me on another level, but it's so frustrating when I just don't the vocabulary to describe that level itself. This is why I read a lot of reviews and thinkpieces, because someone somewhere nails exactly what I wanted to say but I'd never have thought of saying it that way. This is also why I love rating things, because again I lack the verbosity to accurately communicate the depth of my love for the thing, so I hope that a relative rating scale will at least give someone a better sense of what I'm trying to say.
"Everything is vague to a degree you do not realize till you have tried to make it precise, and everything precise is so remote from everything that we normally think, that you cannot for a moment suppose that is what we really mean when we say what we think.” - Bertrand Russel
Looks like You just let the heart with overloaded 'feelings bag' do the talking .
