A DROP IN THE OCEAN
You know those times when you go into a relationship knowing it will be short term: we have this much time together and then for whatever reason, we have to go our separate ways. So it isn't about being serious, just about enjoying your time together. But even though you know from the first moment it isn't going to last, you let yourself fall into it. And you feel so much more than you ever intended. And you dream, and imagine, even though you know it has to end, that you'll be together forever. That it'll never end. And then your time runs out, just as you always knew it would. And you're left feeling so much, and it's over, and there is absolutely nothing you can do. Nothing at all.
