To Have It All

The worse mistake we make is leave something good in hopes that there is something better out there for us. And sadly, we make this mistake too often. The truth is, there is always something - someone - better out there for us. Someone who is more compatible, someone who is more beautiful, someone who would fit more into our lives. You can use all the logic in the world and calculate all the compatibilities, and you will see your perfect mate. But would that perfect mate love you? Would that perfect mate be near you? Or would that perfect mate will even be available? The answer is... 'Perhaps,' but are you really willing to bet on that? Are you willing to set your small loving home on fire in hopes for a big mansion tomorrow which may or may not exist?

And I wish I could tell you to not make this mistakes, to learn from what I have seen. Because I know all too well that once you take that step there is no way of undoing it. But I won't tell you because I get it - I get it that we are selfish, we want it all and the most dangerous thing we want is "More". So I won't tell you not to make this mistake because it is something you know in your heart or you don't.

All I can tell you is that you will make this mistake and you will regret it.

Separation Anxiety

It is surreal driving long distance at night. You feel almost weird when there is no one else on the road except yourself. The only light you see around comes from your own headlights and there is no one to give you company but the lonely moon watching over you from far away.

I look at the moon from the side of my eye as I drive down this seemingly never ending road hoping to reach yet another strange destination soon. I look at the moon and think about all those I have associated the moon with and all those who have associated the moon with me. In this dreamlike light of the moon, I gaze over the shining fields and picture the lost lovers, the forgotten friends, and the never acknowledged faces. I leave yet another place and become a lonely traveler in yet another city. I pity myself for being alone and leaving those I left and leaving those I had to leave.

And as I pity myself, I see another lonely car passing by me going in the opposite direction. As it approaches me, he turns down his headlights and I turn down mine. We come close for a brief moment in acknowledgment of each other before we go back to blackness of the road.

And every time that happens, no matter how scarcely it does - when two cars meet at night on a lonely road, when they dim their headlights for each other and their paths cross for that short moment during their journeys in opposite directions... I feel like I am NOT ALONE in this world.

After Midnight

The magic has fled. Time forced itself to flow as it always did and the night turned towards morning's promise. She nearly fainted with exhaustion as her power drained the way it always did with the passing of midnight.

Someday she would find a way to hold onto it. There had to be a way to prevent the fading of the eldritch energy she wielded to keep her place safe. But tonight was another failed attempt.

Weary and heartbroken, she struggled to the bed and crawled into its soft comfort. For another day the fairy queen would fall into rejuvenating sleep. And as night turned to day in the midnight hour, she would attempt once more to cast the spells that would protect her heart.
