The Chronicles of Elsewhere

On Relationships

Such is life that we truly pursue that which may well reside beyond our grasp?

I have oft’ times been told that life is naught without struggle; in all journeys, sacrifices must be made. I have felt these truths. I know them personally to some extent. But, still do I find difficulty in believing these truths to be the sum of life…

Funny how the most elusive being can bring you a wanton peace, like a blanket of warmth covering you in the coldest night. And yet—this “peace” remains elusive. It is as if the Cosmic Parents taunt me. Why have I come to know the beauty of the One I may never have? My wanting of her becomes so overwhelmingly great, I am humbled—and prostrate in grief. All I can ever tell myself is that life can have a cruel sense of humor.

The moments so few we share bestow upon me an eerie calm, for I know our moment is but a flicker in time—but, in that brief, the outside world matters not. I only seek to bathe in her essence…

She is indeed a beautiful soul, perhaps too beautiful for me. I don’t think I am deserving of one so gracious. But Oh! How the distance stings so deeply, and that pain mocks my reason—as if my Love is in Vain!

Deserving or not, I cannot believe any love to truly be in vain…for Love is a choice…
