Today's love story
involves two people
that no longer
speak to each other. They met in silence, each keeping
a respectful distance away from the other, did they
envision a time when hearts would be hurting, and
the typical comforts they associated with isolation
in the past proved to be fleeting, and sadly elusive?
What made them fall in love? Were they truly '
in love
',
or had they too made the mistake many others do,
and associated uncertain, and unfamiliar emotional
states with the sacrifices and substance of
real love
?
We'll give both of them jobs, strengths, and just to
keep it interesting,
major flaws
. We'll load both with
extreme sensuality, charisma, yet keep them aloof,
unpredictable at odd moments, charming when they
want to be. They're intelligent, enigmatic, awkward
at times, shy when you least expect it, and they both
have plenty of ego while also lacking in self esteem.
He's great at what she's not, and vice versa, and his
relationship with money is just as healthy as hers
is with alcohol, and other controllable substances.
Neither of them has to say a thing to communicate
volumes
, their unspoken language seems to make
sense to them, and at times the connection appears
to so deep that it
transcends the physical
. Can they
really read each other's minds? I doubt it, but would
not relish trying to talk either of them out of this
incredible possibility. Have you ever done something
mind bogglingly stupid?
They have
. Guilt, shame,
regret, doubt; how could anyone possibly love, or
forgive me? (
both of them think
).
Perhaps it wasn't meant to be, history is filled with
stories of
star crossed lovers
, why should they be
any different? (they wonder to themselves). Their
lives are fine,
plenty of people have it much worse
.
Neither of them have ever been better off in some
ways, but tattered pride, and battered egos make
their
Pyrrhic victories
less of an occasion to celebrate.
They're trying so hard, A for effort on both sides, but
cold wars are unlike the hot and heated ones. Silence
that screams with feeling, who wins if both lose?
On the other hand, who loses, if both parties win?
(
To be continued
...)
Truth and fiction are both strange.
