The most frightening thing in the world is to lose passion. I fear I have none of that anymore. It's like my entire being just floats through the day. When the one thing you live for, the one thing you lean on is taken away from you, oppression by the people in power, the people who believe that everything they think is right, then what's a boy to do?
That's because the world is more than just us. Still, it leaves me at a loss of what to do, and being purposeless in a terrible feeling. They say, keep busy, find something, anything to take your mind off her. Run for hours just to feel like you're going to collapse and never breathe again. Worse, she's thinking of you, too. And yet you're kept apart, circumstance, and you need strength, but honestly, how much can you take? Just a small kid in a strange town trying to scrape your way through the day.
It's almost heartless, definitely painful, but these people in power just want what's best for us, right? Or are they fixated in their positions, demanding perfection to their letter, even if reality is not that simple. All these literal romanticists, unable to see what's right before their eyes.
How'd they guess? Maybe it's something that you can smell in the air, when we're just in each other's presence.
But maybe there won't be an us anymore, so I sit here and try to find calm, try to relax. Try not to relapse. Good things come to those who wait?
that was a beautiful comment and i'm sorry because i'm at a loss for words to reply and even to describe how i feel...but i totally feel you. i want to tell you this: don't give up. don't give up alright? don't give up. it's not worth giving up something you want. i don't believe in letting the circumstances get us down, it doesn't make sense. no circumstance is as strong as the will of the mind itself. and you try until you can't.
one day in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as most beautiful...

I wish everything were so much more simple.
