Tired of using the paper tissues that keep sticking to my face every time I rub my wetety wet face, I have now resorted to a towel. How long before I recover from this heartbreak? Is this my first one you may ask. No. Its not. Then where did you have a whole heart for it to break all over again you may ask, after a thought. And there my friends, is where the true essence of Love shows. When the feeling of love, that beautiful unconscious drowning of thyself in the life, happiness and sorrow of another, sets on you, you are a whole person, both in mind and heart. It awakens the construction juices and cells that are involved in the building process of that fist sized organ. We will never know how long it takes to mend, but the wait for that 'one' person will surely make up for the time you spent drowning in your tears and the sad love songs that keep playing like there's no tomorrow.
And then I realise, that there will be a tomorrow and a day after and more days after that and still more days after the more days after. A tomorrow and a day after and more days-I hope you get the drift- with more tears, tissues, love songs and ice cream (a heartbreak makes us stop thinking of our health entirely!). And again I ask myself-How long before I recover from this heartbreak? How long before I can say, 'I made a choice to finally let you go, because I cannot stand the pain. Its time for my last tear to fall and smile again.'
