“You know what I miss?” She said, “I miss how simple everything used to be, or at least the way it seemed to. I can’t begin to fathom how it all got this way. How everything suddenly became this big race whilst knowing that the finish line is nowhere near, and completely unpredictable and invisible. What on earth am I running from? Where on earth am I running to? Why is everyone in such a rush? Why must everyone constantly feel the need to be in control? To be on top, and reign over everyone else, when in the end the infinite universe we live amongst and beyond is in no way possibly tamable. Ambitions are one thing, dreams are others, and fulfilling them is just as beautiful as the loves that bond us together. It’s the in between, the dirt inside the cracks, the soil beneath the pavement that’ll never fail and always grow. I’ve found these qualities in life itself and in people. But you. I’d put everything into this and suddenly I realize it could never be enough. Yet it’s completely out of my control. You, like the universe are this untamable creature, with galaxies worth of issues and infinite problems needing to be solved. And why? We are curious. I am curious. Before my eyes you keep growing. Before my eyes I keep discovering. Before my eyes I’m constantly knowing that things will never be the same as they once were at the beginning of time, but will forever be remembered, yet maybe forgotten, like a rock or looked past like a star. And I know that at any one moment you can turn on me. Catch me by surprise. Take my life. And with mine, everyone else’s, as well as yours, vanished inside of a thousand black holes. And I’ll always wonder what was on the other side. The millions of me will be scattered and torn into bits and pieces, only to be reassembled in a different manner, at another time, in another place, where everything has new faces and paces and meaning, a new way to see and there you will be. The grains that bind you together are the particles that have always been one. And no matter how much I fight with my words, it’s only a battle lost, an argument wasted, and a lack of understanding. You’ll tell me to never be the same just because it all is. You can still make me smile. Or whatever that is.”
