Hanging By A Thread

I think every girl is a hopeless romantic at heart. We dreamed of meeting prince charming, falling in love together and living happily ever after. It's normal to want to be happy in that way and perhaps it's also normal to expect those feelings to last forever....after all, it is of course, a lifetime committment. Perhaps it's that mindset that makes it difficult to cope in a situation wherein you compromise everything you ever believed in about love for the what you felt for a moment. Hoping, of course, that despite the doubts that surrounds it, it will prevail and evolve into that lifelong notion of what love is. What happens then when despite your best intentions love does not really develop. When all that stands between you and him saying goodbye are little faces that expects that "happily ever after." Tough as it may you realize that for you, life becomes nothing but a fairy tale and the ending that should have been happy is looking very grim. For even if your hopes are realized and forever is achieved, you can't seem to see how love will follow. You hold on because of the pieces of you that can no longer go independently but you do so void of feeling and hanging only by a thread. I still believe that every girl should dream. It really is a beautiful thing to be loved so deeply. I guess I'm still a hopeless romantic....yeah, hopeless...
