Lately, I’ve been convincing myself more and more that this is how it is: we may be drawn to each other, and when we see one another sparks may fly everywhere, enough to melt the ice of any polar circle; but once we part, everything returns to normal, you to your life and I to mine.
That’s how it is: we neither need each other nor miss each other when we’re apart, but as long as we’re in the same room, we turn the world upside down with this attraction; just as the moon raises the tide, just as the moon cannot stop orbiting the Earth and only pulls away for brief moments, so it is, then, the story of us as lovers.
