remember those times?

when we used to disgust

over something that we desperately need.

as the candles multiply,

the more i learn about it.


love

it is a language that has no barrier.

not even race and age, nor nationality and social status can occlude the prelude

of something so beautiful.


but is something that leads to

divorces, murders, abuses, and suicides

could really be... beautiful?


falling in love will kill you

- gerard way


we often expect the most out of a relationship

let it be the intimate ones or friendly ones

whereas what we all should do is

focusing on giving


expectations

are the real devil

it derails us from reality

and eventually leads us to insanity


you don't truly love someone

if you don't accept their pure self

cause in the end

it is not about expecting the best of them

but it is tolerating their imperfections


hence, should we really find someone

that is perfect for us?

or should we find someone

that we could accept wholeheartedly

despite their flaws?




we are only a bunch of jigsaws

that are bound to find our match

though our match has so many differences

they are the one

that will complete the full picture...

picture of our life


we are often deceived

by novels and rom-coms

it makes us perceive

the absence of qualms

that actually prevails

as the main concern in reality

when finding our match


if they truly love you

they won't pressure you into loving them

but they will

care for your freedom

to make decisions by yourself


otherwise

do suppress

because they're only obsessed

with the temporality of your outer-self

instead of the eternality of your soul
