i'll never understand it
i'll never figure out why it happened,
or how for that matter.
things change in the blink of an eye
and it never makes any sense
all we can hope for is that it happened for the best.
but then why am i up wondering
about what could be, about what could've been
...what should have been.
i have everything i need
so why is there an emptiness that i can't fill.
i know i have to move forward, & i have been,
so why does it feel like i'm stuck?
why does it feel like i'm moving in reverse?
i'll never understand it,
i'll just have to live with it.
&keeptrying.

If you look around, it's not uncommon to see people connected to one another in various ways. The relationships we share with people are one of the most important aspects of our lives. Although they are vital in a persons life, the maintenance and upkeep of these relationships are one of the hardest challenges most of us face. The problem with relationships, whether it be one of friends, family, or significant others; is that we never know how much certain people rely on these relationships, and within that, the conflict of completely satisfying another breaks through as well. Not knowing the priority of each of these relationships can also cause an outbreak of rage from other parties. And then, the two most common and difficult problems: holding on and letting go. Everybody is different, that is something we've all, or most of us anyway, have accepted as a part of life. But how do we know how much a person can take? There are two kinds of people in this situation: the clinger and the clingee. While one party feels the need to latch on, the other is only interested in their space and freedom to breathe. It's funny though, even in knowing all of these complications that come with merely the thought of relationships, we can't help but invest ourselves in others, and if we don't have that somebody, we strive to achieve the company of, well, anybody. I guess it's pretty ironic. But the most interesting idea that strikes me is does anybody else think about all of this?-- because in a world full of relationships and people leaning on one another for support and so much more, the worst thing you can do is to find that you, yourself are alone.

Picture this: the boy you have liked for a year and a half walks by in the hallway and suddenly grabs your hand only to hold. The rush that comes to your mind is incredible. Imagine the two of you sitting next to each other and him starting to hold you in his arms as if he would never let go. At that moment, his touch makes you feel like eternity is in the palm of your hands. You hug him and right then and there, you have grasped your entire world.
