whatever she wanted

[anonymousblack]

is longing more important than connecting?

is unrequited love more noble than returned love? does nobility really play into it? how about: is there more growth, more evolution, more power in the experience of unrequited love?

what do i want, exactly? to get what i want, or to be left wanting? satisfaction without lack or better learning to iterate what is truly desired?

the empty page or the page ready to be filled? the filled page or the filling page?

finally seeing the words or wondering what they could be?

the naked page before me, or trying to make out the words printed on the other side?

remembering happiness or forgetting pain?

Hypothetical, or can anyone contribute?

*is hoping it wasn't hypothetical*

In spite of what Blondie would have us believe, dreaming is not free. At least if not in moderation. The map should never replace the actual territory, it should only serve as a blueprint to create the best actual territory possible. It should inspire. But as long as it’s in intangible blueprint form- it’s like trying to eat a picture of food, and getting confused about why it neither tastes very good nor makes the hunger go away. Says this observer, anyway.

I have learned in the past few months (and this is not eloquently put at all) that unrequited love is bullshit.
