LIFE AFTER LOVE.
There’s life, the one given freely and there’s love, the one we sought for with our whole existence. Could have earned it freely if I had given myself to Him from the start of my life but instead I sought for it in humans till I met Her.
People come and go, but it’s hard to let go. Even when we want to hold on to the last of the memories, they fade away with those living entities. I wish I didn’t have to let her go, but I had to. I didn’t want to lie, but I had to pretend. My conscience told me I was wrong, that I was twisting the truth.
But sometimes it’s better to leave things as they are. Not everything is built on truth; some things are built on kind lies, on gentle whispers, on benevolent deceptions. I know it’s not ideal, but sometimes it’s what we need to get through the tough times.
I smiled, but it was a mask. Life after love can be tough, but I’ve found hope in God now. I wish I’d followed Him earlier.
Was I ready for life after love? Or was I just fooling myself? I said what you wanted to hear, but if you’d looked into my eyes, you’d have seen the truth. Life after love is something we can’t avoid.
