Heart Ache

Every time someone I love gets hurt or falls sick, my heart aches. It is a lie that love means sadness divided, for love multiplies everything. On some level, I believe we were born to get hurt. To learn about finiteness, that the physical state only lives so far. And only when one understands one's limits can one really face infinity - which lives as a seed of possibility in all of us. Knowing this, even an inkling of this, does not make it easier. We'll love, we'll fear and we'll hold hands in the dark.
