                "Where there is love, there is pain." - Spanish Proverb


              No doubt I'm masochistic enough to endure the alluring heartache.


                       You're not mine, but I'm still yours.

Musings of Kate - La Farandole d'Ete

                                                                                                                              


                                                                                                                            
My heart looks like Mark Chagall's "La Farandole d'Ete" today. 


A warm festive afternoon, the sun is kind and spreading its maternal love, the sky is dreamy, farmers are dancing to celebrate their harvest time, lovers only have eyes for each other. Family and friends are happy all over, smiles, laughter, they are making me happy, too.                                          

Me, feeling a little awkward in the air, embraced by the sunshine, waiting, yearning, longing for you - merging with the blue fantasy behind the sun - will come, take my hand very soon. When, darling, when? He will answer tenderly, "Hold your love and wait until I become pale pink. And sweetheart, it'll be our season when you see me glowing gold in the light."

Title: Eternal Summer

 


                                          

        Cool breeze, long, wistful shades of the waterfront villas on the sandy beach

            Beau blue is the color of an innocent love in a small vidro bottle

            A piece of glass forsaken by her destiny, embraced, serenaded

                  by regrets and tears under the roof of mercy

                Yet her beautiful summer days will never be tainted

                     Even if all the colors of love are gone

                Now she's standing on a solid white canvas all alone

                A fairy of the next season sits on her shoulder and,

                     "Let's be friends with him tomorrow"

                           Friends? No, thanks.                                             
                   True love and friendship are oil and water                                                                                
               Starting tomorrow, she'll paint the eternal summer in oil                                                                                                             With everlasting colors

Karma

A warm, velvety sense traced my neck with its gentle finger and wakened me. A little pain in my heart, the cell phone light is blinking. A line of message at 2:10am.

"Thinking of you. Wish you were here with me."

In the darkness of a steamy night, staring at the quiet ceiling on my bed, another sweet pain came but something else tries to tell me, "Hold on". I know. I'm not ready, but an inarticulate satisfaction adamantly rejected the warning and lulled me to a shallow sleep.


3:46am.
Miracles could be brought to you in the middle of the night. A soothing breeze opened my eyes. This time it was my conciousness. Took my cell, read your message once more, closed my eyes, and it happened. "1 New Message for You".

"Talking to you in your sleep makes me feel that you're mine. How I really wish you were mine."

The warning's gone, and I couldn't help but feeling the happiness sadistically that he was mine.


         


Summer visited me again and again, and I still wake up at three almost every morning although the miracle seemed to turn its back on me. Then tell me one thing. How many more times do I have to walk across the moment yearning for him like this? When will he let me go? A wicked midnight fairy comes to me and says mockingly, "This is a punishment. He'll never allow you to forget the night you fell in love with him. And you know it. You still want it so badly."

How pathetic I am to finally admit this silly thought; No, I don't want to forget anything we shared. I can't say goodbye to my sweet 3:46am, my miserable ecstasy of his whispers, kisses and sighs. I can't let it go even if you don't love me anymore. I won't let it go even if I'd have to be alone forever.


Do you think it's myopic? No, it's not. This is just a true love.

Fireworks





                   - Fireworks are not the flowers to see alone.


Neither those beautiful flowers in the festive sky nor the glittering shooting stars across the milky way can compare to the night with you. I miss you. Wish you were here, just one more night.

Anniversary

Darling, have you ever celebrated any anniversary feeling so sentimental in your life? Did you remember the day we met? Yesterday, without you, I just needed to be a tiny shard of crystal in a kaleidoscope so that I could nestle my misery into it without seeing us in an old, sepia film all night long.

I wasn't the only one. He must've been hurt enough to give up on me. He wanted me as much as I wanted him. Maybe he tried so much harder to share his life with me than I tried to share mine with him. I was late, arrogant, scared. He was gentle, patient, weary and just had to turn around at the end of our days.

Miracle had been a mere fuzzy myth to me until he came into my life. We smiled, laughed and loved. Then he walked away. Sadness threw me into a lake of distraction. Cried, drowned, and a lenient drowsiness gave me a rest. I wished I would never, ever wake up again.

The next moment, I could finally let him go with this thought: He might be in love with someone else, and tomorrow I might find someone new. Yet if we were destined to be together, we must be walking now separately on the different paths in the same direction, and one day those two roads will meet again at the gate of Lovers Lane. So I'll tell you, "Until then." If not? Que sera sera.

Last night I, wearing my favorite mauve chiffon dress, lighting a little candle on my cupcake, opening a bottle of Margaux, listened to our song. God, it's still shining, our unforgettable encounter. Miss you much but it was a good evening after all. Happy Anniversary, love.
