i keep burning my fingers to light this flame.

i try to keep faith.
but it is difficult to believe in something that i have never seen.

Know what I'm sick of hearing, "The moment you stop looking for it, you'll find it..."

but isnt it true? i feel like when i am finally happy in being alone, really honestly happy, THAT is when i stumble upon someone and am angry that i have to give up my independence. that is when i fall back into the trap of believing i need someone else to be happy and have to find myself again.

you do not believe in this?

regardless. it is a mess. the whole lot of it.

That's what they say, but I don't know if it's true...

You shouldn't have to sacrifice yourself. I did that too much throughout the course of my relationship and it led to much unpleasantness. I'm done with that. You shouldn't have to choose between being yourself and being with someone.

Ideally, the person you're with won't cause you to sacrifice anything. You'll be happy with them and vice versa. Period.

I'm not looking for it, so I'll be pleasantly surprised when it approaches.

"The whole lot of it."

Nice.

Have a good evening...
