unlucky is an understatement

I never believed that sometimes
people may be born to suffer
until you told me that
you were born to love me.

    this illustrates a connection between heart and pen like some kind of reverse IV drip.

    It's 4am and I was on my way to bed... but logged in, because I wanted to comment on this. Indeed, this can be seen from two angles. On the one hand, unrequited love is painful, to both sides (http://familymatters.vision.org/FamilyMatters/bid/76805/Return-to-Sender-Unrequited-Love-is-Painful-for-the-Rejector-Too). Ten minutes ago, I conversed with a girl who loved a boy, but he did not find her interesting in that sense. Having someone care for you deeply is a responsibility and an inevitability. How would one make the other suppress herself... and not feel like c*ap... even through, in the end, this might be the lesser of two evils. On the other hand hover... "Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. " (http://thinkexist.com/quotation/have-you-ever-been-in-love-horrible-isn-t-it-it/347156.html) Being in love means risking getting hurt... and it's hurt we can't let go of since we repeatedly go back for seconds. I'm intrigued - such a short thought, but so many interpretations and ideas. Well phrased. Thank you for keeping my brain busy for half an hour.

    This actually could be looked at from two different perspectives... The unlucky one could be the one giving the affection, or the unlucky one could be the one receiving the affection depending on the circumstances of your relationship...and the situation the reader may be involved in... I have been the victim of several abusive relationships, so i lean toward the latter, but either way, I like it. GREAT JOB!

    But forever is a long time, and a huge responsibility, sounds like a keeper, cheers!
