The sun loved the moon so much that he died every night to let her breathe.
I can’t get over how beautiful I think that quote is in the title.
I can’t get over how beautiful I think the love story between the sun and the moon is.
Maybe I’m the only one who thinks this way. If there’s anyone who even reads this, you’re probably just sitting there thinking about how strange I am. That’s fine though.
“I asked the moon why he fell in love with the sun and he said "I’ve chased her all my life she makes me see the light, I know she’s the one.”
“Sometimes I think of the sun and moon as lovers who rarely meet, always chase, and almost always miss one another. But once in a while, they do catch up and they kiss, and the world stares in awe of their eclipse.”
Give me a love like that.
Every so often, when I let my mind wander, I start to think that it would be nice to be in a relationship again. To have this other person to share things with; my life with. For me to be able to know that the person I kissed last week is the same person I kissed this week and will be the same person I kiss next week. It’s all such pretty thoughts. Sometimes I think it would be nice for someone to know every little thing about my past and present, my flaws, my mistakes, my bad habits, and still love me anyway. To know the me when I wake up in the morning, the me when I’m alone, the me when I’m surrounded by people, the me when I’m drunk, the me when I’m sober, the me at 3 am, and still be fine with it all; that would be wonderful.
Other times, however, I don’t think all that is in the cards for me, for now at least. Dating is weird. Well, it takes effort and time; effort and time that I don’t want to invest in something if it’s not really going to last. That’s how I see it at least. If you date someone, you’re either going to get married, or you’re going to break up. It’s kind of a weird thought, but it’s true, there’s not much gray area you can play with there. The last couple of people that I’ve gone out with didn’t really progress into anything, and I don’t really see the point in keeping anything going if I don’t see any sort of future there. I think I’m just so used to being single right now; living how I want, doing what I want, that it’s hard for me to think outside of the box that I’ve created and picture it any other way. “Catch no feelings, feel no pain.” Honestly though, sometimes all these randoms and side people get on my nerves, but other times it’s the perfect situation; I don’t have to answer to anyone about what I’m doing, where I’m going, and who I’m talking to. It’s nice. At times.
I have a couple friends who are engaged, married, pregnant, and some who have kids. Some of them are in really good situations, and others, I wouldn’t want their life at all. I don’t understand why some people find it so easy to settle, because the effort to be with someone else is just too much. As long as they’re happy, then I guess, who am I to have something to say, anyway. If I ever get married one day, I just want to be happy. Truly happy. Maybe it’s a little “Disney and fairy-tale” thinking, but I if I do ever get married, I just want to be married to that one person for the rest of my forever. I hate how it’s so rare for anything to last these days; people find it so easy to cheat, and so hard to be faithful. It’s sad. People get married and it lasts a year. Why? What is so wrong with our generation that the vows of forever mean nothing? For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health. Does it mean nothing? I mean, really, does it? So many times it’s so easy for people to run and head for the door for a reason so small as a “rattle”. I’m not saying this is the case for everyone, but I know it is the case with a lot. Can anyone just work things out?
I don’t know, I think I’ll go on staying single for now and I’ll just continue doing me and what I want till someone worth it decides to change that.
“Even
After
All this time
The Sun never says to the Earth,
“You owe me.”
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the whole sky.”
Live by the sun, love by the moon,
have a beautiful day, everyone.
xoxo, S.
