Does true love truly exist... or is it just a cruel illusion dressed in beauty?
I watched him, the most beautiful man I've ever known, give his heart away to her. My best friend. I watched them fall into each other like the world was made just for them. So effortlessly, so blindly. Is this what they call true love? Do they even know what love means? Or is it just him who loves her beyond reason?
How does a man like him, a man who feels like poetry in motion, bend so willingly, so completely, at her feet?
How is he so certain? So unwavering?

L'amour, Existe (Ver.2)

Redefined every time someone new uses it, and sometimes in a more vile and lascivious way. Love was never on the table. Completely erased from his vocabulary after his mother died an unforgiving death. However, sometimes the feeling can emerge from even the darkest places in the world. Twisted and depraved. Behind the closed doors of a kidnapper's home. Or from the void that swirls in the chest of someone's missing heart. Even between the forbidden love of an angel and a demon. Love can come in all forms, in all contexts, and can form from even the smallest smidge of scorching hate. There is never light without darkness. There is never yin without yang. There are never days without nights. There is never love without hate. There is never life without death. Even villains and demons can fall in love with heroes and angels. His salvation comes from her, and her destruction comes from him. Like clockwork, they are a match made in the universe; polar opposites, but the attraction is never stronger.Complete
The Tales Of Unrequited Love
"It must be quite something, a feeling like this... it is quite something. Wanting someone for so long that in your head they were yours and with some twisted intervention they become yours but the universe just decides that no form of intervention, strong feeling, and lust, planning or begging will make them yours. I wanted Jurian for so long I even overlooked that he loved someone else, I knew he never was mine but my yearning for him was so strong that I needed to have him anyway, I was selfish when it came to him, he was like a craving I desperately needed to satisfy, I was pregnant with emotions controlling me with its craving for someone who does not belong to me, but that is just how it goes isn't it? The tales of unrequited love." When Liana's fairytale does not turn out the way she had dreamt, she tries at all costs to make it work but she soon becomes indebted to reality and an unforseen journeyComplete
Finding Love and Purpose
Love? Does it truly exist in our world today? I find myself pondering this question deeply. I have never experienced the profound depths of love, nor can I fully grasp the affection that my parents wish to share with me.

I wander through this world, adrift and lost, yearning for the luxurious sensation of love that eludes me. While everyone around me is fervently chasing their goals and passions, I remain here, clinging to the fleeting hope of discovering the connections I so desperately crave. In this landscape of ambition, I search for the missing pieces of my heart, longing for the love I have always dreamed of finding.Complete

~Trust Me ~
"I want a divorce." And just hearing him say that my whole world that seemed to revolve around him stopped. Gathering myself I barely managed to speak in a voice that even I could not recognise. I couldn't comprehend anything going around me. "Wh..hy?" As soon as the words left my mouth he threw the file and the photographs spread across the floor. And those photographs had me in compromising positions with not one but several men. Looking at those photos I looked straight into his eyes. Disgust and hatred. The only emotions I could see. Taking a deep breath I composed myself and tried to keep my face void of the emotions I felt at that moment. Hurt and immense pain. If he didn't trust me then he has no right to see me vulnerable too. "Is this the only reason why you want to divorce me? No other except this?" It was foolish of me to ask him but I had to make sure. Also for me trust comes before love. If he doesn't trust me I don't even want to save the relationship. "Is this not enough you whore? What else can I expect from a slut and a gold digger like you! I knew it from the start that all you showed was just a facade. Your innocence, kindness, it was all fake. I just don't believe how can I be so dumb." Was I hurt? No I was broken beyond repair. My heart ached. I felt like I was seconds away from collapsing. I had far exceeded the limit of hurt and pain. I was so powerless in that moment that I couldn't even fight with him. Love makes you strong. I have heard and felt that countless times but they always forget to mention what comes after that. Love makes you weak too. I couldn't shout at him because I loved him. But I had to be brave. For myself. ************************************************** Is love enough for two people to be together or is there something more important than love? This is story of Xander and Sophie who loved each other but still couldn't be together. Because more important than love is trust. © All rights reservedComplete
THREE AUTUMNS WITHOUT YOU
I used to think I was living the life people only dream about. Everything looked perfect on the outside - the smiles, the success, the routine that gave me comfort. I had the freedom, the admiration, and the illusion of happiness. I truly believed that this was it - the life I had worked so hard to build, the one everyone else wished they had. But then he came into my world - unexpected and uninvited, like a storm that doesn't ask permission before it breaks everything in its path. He was unlike anyone I had ever met. A man cloaked in mystery, always quiet, always observing, like he carried the weight of a thousand secrets. People knew his name, admired him from a distance, but no one really knew him. And he liked it that way. He wasn't kind in the way the world expects. He wasn't soft or gentle. He didn't chase approval, and he didn't waste time pretending. His world was cold and guarded - his heart only opening for the few he truly cared about: his family, and the rare souls he dared to love. And yet, somehow, I was drawn to him. Not just to his mystery, but to the way he made me feel - like I was no longer the polished, perfect version of myself I had grown so used to pretending to be. Around him, the mask I wore for years slowly cracked. I started seeing pieces of myself I didn't know existed. He turned my world upside down. He didn't just make me feel - he made me question everything. Who I was. What I wanted. Who I was pretending to be. I became someone I no longer recognized - not the girl with the perfect life, but someone raw, confused, aching for something real. He didn't just enter my life. He changed it. He changed me.
