Invisible Strings

Introduction

 Destiny. If you believe in it then you believe that everything that happens must have been written in the stars or its meant to be. It's when the right person, thing, or event comes at the time when you needed it the most. 

Everything happens for a reason, for a greater thing to happen sometimes you have to overcome the problems that can come first. My mother once told me a legend that I have always kept dear to my heart. She told me that every person has an invisible red tie that is tied in their fingers, and that tie is connected to the person that you are meant to be with. Just the thought of having someone that you will spend your waking moments with, every celebration, hardships and losses. You will have each other. Like an invisible string connecting two hearts. No matter the distance, they will meet in every lifetime. That thought always warms my heart.

I believe that in life there is someone that we will spend the rest of our lives with, in other words a soulmate. Some people lost their belief that there is someone that will love them, others are afraid to get their heart broken, and some just doesn't believe in love because they haven't experienced it or they have but it wasn't successful. But love makes life worth living for, it's a miracle that we are lucky to experience. Not just love from another person, but animals nature, hobbits and music. The feeling of your heart beating, knowing you're alive and living right now, in this time, in this place. 

For other people I will sound like a hopeless romantic, someone who puts love as the center of their lives. But I can't help it, I just love...love.

But sometimes, maybe the person you think is the one, isn't. Love can play cruel games, it will hurt you, make you cry, but it's a splendid emotion. There are times though, that its better to let go, when you have given your all and receive nothing back. Love is so addicting, you'll know it when you fall in love. 

I wonder how far one will go through just for that love from another person. What are you willing to let go for love? Willing to sacrifice? Will it all be reciprocated? or are you going to be left alone at 1:25 am under the red, brown and yellow leaves that are falling under the tree that autumn night. I love this weather, I love hearing the rain fall down and hit the window pane as I watch you sleep, as I look up from your warm chest where I lay. But today, it doesn't feel the same, it's just cold, I hate it, I hate this weather, I hate you. I watch as you turned your back and walked away. Farther and farther, and that's when I felt it, the invisible strings. I felt as they slowly break, I touched my heart and it's an unexplainable feeling. I know it sounds impossible, but I know that my heart is breaking. I crouched down and put my head between my knees as I wrapped my arms around it. Maybe destiny doesn't exist, maybe love isn't as simple as I thought, after all I was just a foolish girl, that fell in love after that foolish kiss, with that perfect boy.
