PATHS TAKEN, LOVE LOST
Sacrifice.. Worth
When I visualize the life I desire, the life I see birthing the most fulfillment. My true wants and needs. I see love. That’s it. I don’t see anything material. I don’t see any specific location. I see skin up close, touching mine.. and I feel the smile on my face. I see love. I feel safe.
I don’t want to say whole. I am whole on my own.. but the emptiness I felt in my life doesn’t seem as vast as before. My focus is different. I am no longer looking to be preoccupied, for my mind always wanders to you, and that is all.. that keeps me satisfied.
I think of the things I have yet to do, the things I’ve done before but didn’t experience the way I wanted, the things that you haven’t experienced at all… I want us to take that journey together. Experience this life together. In all forms.. I want you happy, I want you to live, I want you to see.. I want you to feel.
The idea of giving all of that up for something like money. A fabrication, a form of currency, an idea created and materialized. It makes people prioritize love last… the people they love, last. How foolish. How sick… yet we do it.
I’ve thought if I cant have the one I love, if I cant have LOVE.. then why not give myself. Why not sacrifice it all, to live well.. to have whatever it is I please at my finger tips… but what fulfillment would that bring. Money is the poor mans love. That is how we fill that emptiness, how we preoccupy ourselves.. we are covered in diamonds, and filled will sorrow. Steady searching but there are only shortcomings of empty relations.. do they regret it? Are they sick of lacking the connection.
I choose love.
as alone as I may be with so many chasing something else, I will always choose love. I will always choose you.
