She closed her eyes. How could this be true? She wanted true love. What is this? This does not seem like true love. Love should make you feel warm inside, and gleeful. Love should make you give up anything for it, since it is the best present. Love should make you… Anything but what she is feeling now. It would be best to leave, but she doesn't want to feel alone again… She still did not want to feel this way, either.
Now, should she listen to love songs, to convince her mind that this is true love? To lie to herself? Or, just stop thinking. Maybe it's that simple, and maybe it isn't. She shouldn't feel insecure. Or maybe she doesn't deserve to be happy. It could be, since she didn't think that highly of herself. When you are in trouble, you could only wish somebody else could help you pick up the pieces. Well, where was her secret admirer? Retired? Gone. She knows that he isn't here now.
But, doesn't love work in mysterious ways? He might not be here now, but he could be there sometime else. Fine, she could wait for him. She could be happy without somebody, as long as she knows somebody is coming to her, little bits, each day. She could be grateful for living, when she knows somebody is grateful for her. The question is, who is this person? Why want to find out, when you just know they exist? And are safe, live to see your smile, and love you from afar, not sure if it would be a difference with you or not. She certainly knows that he is near her now, in her mind, in her soul, and is there whenever she asks. A masked man, coming to rescue her soul from the darkness, and the unwelcoming-ness from the outside world. The world she has to be in everyday. But, he was part of her everyday life. Just smiling, and being in a bright mood, will bring him to her. The cycle continues, until the outcome is true love. She knows she is in the beginning of the love cycle.
