There is an unmistakable ebb and flow to life
Peaks and valleys -- characterized by prosperity, stagnation, and sorrow
Love is the equalizing force, tethering you to the centerfold
A sensation so great, that even the mystique of its’ promise can’t overshadow the euphoria of its reality
But, the naive man realized rapture requires reciprocity
There is no equity in unrequited love
Only strife

She is an incandescent fixture, illuminating my heart with the totality of her beauty. Not just the sultry of her curves, but the way her stare pierces through her thick lenses. The saccharine scent of her perfume. How each kiss pulls me in like the tides before a beautiful moon and lingers for an eternity. How every time I say goodbye, the contrast between the idle and the intimate consumes me with melancholy.
