drifting leaf

a journey...of moments...of discovery...of the colours of emotion...of the design of nature... to a place unknown...yet known...a place within...yet far away... between the realms of the earth and the sky... between reality and dreams... just a leaf...one lonely leaf...drifting...but always moving...

Is it ever too late…

Relationships…are an enigma to me…just when I think I have a grip on them, they slip out of my hold…like water through my fingers...like silky hair through a piece of ribbon…like a yellow leaf from a tree…like tears…
I just don’t understand them…so I spent a wonderful afternoon and evening with someone…and I don’t understand what happened…a whole lot of questions have been racing through my head and they just won’t stop speeding by unless I put them down…

Can relationships just end?...
Do relationships ever end?...
Can a relationship end without really starting?
Can a relationship restart without really ending?
Can you love someone like crazy?...
Can you then hate someone like crazy?...
Can you then stop loving them?...
Can you unlove them?...
What would make you stop loving someone?...
Does that vary from person to person?...
Can you forgive someone even if they’ve hurt you like nothing or no one else?...
Do traces of that love always stay?...
Do traces of that hurt always remain?...
Can you truly get over someone?...
Who in the world coined the term ‘get over’?! what were they thinking?!
Can you forget?...
Does that thread connecting the two remain forever?...
Can you pick up where you left off?...
Is it ever too late?...

Honestly…I don’t know…an enigma…

Interesting questions posed more as rhetoric..I discovered the something...the answer to all ur questions is a simple " NO" unless.. here goes the rider... u can find a way to locate and shut down one of ur imp systems... what people refer to as " the heart"..Once it is not active.. u will feel no pain , no sorrow.. u just continue living perpetually..life and people just blaze past you
but alas!!! whence done ..then you and the dead are only seperated by lack of breath !

see that's the tough part...i don't want to shut my heart down...i don't want to be another body with the ability to breathe...i want more...i guess with 'more' comes more love...more hurt...more pain...i want to live my life in all the colours of emotions...
what i think i can try to do, is put my heart on 'stand by'...give it time off... :)
