***
I must admit, I’m so very tired of it all.
Why is that?
There are so many things that need to be fixed in this world.
If you were made to fix broken hearts, you would have been born with a needle and thread.
***
When you look in the mirror, what do you see?
Everything I’m not.
That is a lie that may you feel, but never believe. Remember, A butterfly cannot see its wings.
***
What is the hardest truth for you to accept?
You can try so hard and do everything right and you can still meet a sad ending.
Why do you try then?
What else do we know but to try.
Is it worth it in the end?
I hope so.
***
I am breaking.
For a star to be born, something must collapse.
Does it hurt?
Everywhere.
***
How was your day?
I came home last night. I sat down and was greeted with silence. Is silence loneliness or freedom?
Only perspective can tell.
***
People come and go. Why do you bother? They are rivers, ever changing.
They come and they go, but I will never forget them. Not even one.
But do you not miss them?
If someone leaves, another is met. When a door shuts, another opens.
But do you not miss them?
Yes. Very much.
***
Tell me about the sun.
It is alone yet still shines.
Is that all?
What else is there?
It is alone, yes, but it is proof that endings can be beautiful.
Only if you can see the colors.
You have to look through the clouds.
But is it not sad?
The most remarkable things are both sad and beautiful.
***
What troubles you?
I’m scared.
Of what?
It’s not that I fear that I won’t be loved, but I wonder, will I ever be understood?
Both would be the greatest gift.
***
It is heavy, this weight we carry.
Hearts of gold often are.
Just because one carries it well, does not mean it doesn’t weigh them down.
It hurts to care. Is it worth it all in the end?
Always.
