Mins,

“Love bridges the gap between us.”

It has been a week off writing but not a week off you. Intimacy has this thing it breeds, this sense of seeing each other not as you aspire to be but as you really are. Maybe love bridges the gap. Or maybe it is the drug that makes you immune to the great surge of reality that dawns on you when you realize the person you love is an absolute idiot. It keeps you going in frenzied hope of change.
Larger than that feeling, however, is the sense you get that you might be the unwell part of the crucial duo. The mirror is held up at your own angles and the constant rumours of a blind side. You do not only focus on all the things the other idiot is doing, you get a sense that you might be a bigger flaw in the scheme of things to do with love.

All of this is healthy and all of this is good for love. Love demystifies in much the same way as light and all revealing of truth. It is not to support the lie we tell ourselves about how good we are or the alternate lie that we are bad beyond repair. It is to say, this is who I am and this is who you are and love will bridge the gap between us.
I know we have been arguing a lot lately but we have these specific circumstances that make our fights not only expected but perhaps necessary. In the end we must even learn to disagree with levity and lightness.
I don’t doubt our love in the midst of all our troubles. Every single time it is only thing I never doubt.
