Some old ruminations on love:
How do you know whether letting someone new into your heart will chase away the ghosts or whether the ghosts will chase them away?
How do you tell someone who loves you that you'll always love someone else longer and stronger? Does it make it easier or harder if you love this new person? How do you decide whether someone is worth the pain? Worth the loss, and worth the gain?
What if you love someone and never tell them? What if you tell them and they don't feel the same? Can you make someone love you? Is it a skill? Is there a difference between loving someone for a while, and loving them forever? Are there different amounts of love?
Is it better never to love than to break your heart?
Is there such thing as a happy ending? Or do we end each chapter of our lives with a sad beginning?
Our hearts cry from our ghosts, and our minds from their demons. Which influences which? Does it hurt us more to cry from the pain and the memories they give us, or to remove them and have an emptiness where once there was longing?
