Could I hold you for a lifetime, could I look into your eyes
Could I have this night to share, this night together
Could I hold you close beside me, could I hold you for all time
Could I, could I have this kiss, forever...


There's something infinitely nice about a song that you used to love, but lost contact with for such a long time, and just recently you heard it on the radio. Of course, I had to go download the song (Copyrights, schme-pyrights.)

In a way, that can be applied to real life, too. Someone whom you haven't had the pleasure of acknowledging for a long time, it's mostly a nice surprise when you see them again. Absence, as they say, makes the heart grow fonder, if the heart was fond to begin with. Too often this rule is applied too haphazardly, which is why we see so many of the following:

NS-Guy: Baby, I have to enlist in Pulau Tekong tommorow
Baby: I will miss you so veryyyy much...
NS-Guy: I will miss you too, but it's something us guys gotta do
Baby: I will call you every night, I will always think of you...

3 long & lonely weeks, and a sighting of Baby in the arms of another man, later...

Damn Sad NS-Guy: WTF????

See what I mean? Painful though it may be, separation is the true litmus test of one's feelings. Everyone can feel the deepest of emotions for someone if that person is but 2 feet away. It takes alot more to feel that way if the person in question is 2000 km away.

What a conumdrum love is. It evokes the highest of highs, but also stimulates the deepest wounds you will ever feel. Can't have your cake and eat it too, I guess, so there is no gain without risk. It's also alot less glamourous, partly because it is much harder to sit on a beach thinking of that someone, with romantic music playing in the background, in real life.

And of course, as someone mentioned so forthcomingly to me, love's alot more selfish than it's made out to be. Ironic a feeling that's supposed to promote selflessness int the name of love, is actually something that's focused on me, myself and I. After all, the main reason we start to have feelings for someone is because we ache to satisfy our internal urges.

Odd that such insights can come from a guy who, except for a brief fling, has been single throughout his life. I suppose that's ironic, too. The world's full of contradictions, what's one more in the name of love? As they might say, the blind man in the kingdom of the seeing is sometimes more clear-sighted.

I will not give up. You hear me? I will not give up!
