Story #1 “Emotions”

It’s the bumpy long ride, the dust coating everything within sight, and the free falling that begins the first meeting. I have a love inside me growing, and a lack of knowledge of where this is going, though I know for certain it’s not far. You start your journey with such spunk and joy, yet in the middle of my adventure I am in need of your energy; I needed your light just at the exact time you supplied it. Every day the same routine…first we go down then we go up. Every day, every week, every month, every year…same routine and you are always steady. Me…I forever change, but you are forever steady. I know you don’t need me, and I know I don’t need you, but I enjoy your presence, your constant. The sun rises over that mountain, and I’m not sure you can even see it…the mountain that is. I know you see the sun, the light is your guidance, and no longer is it mine. I create my light, but your light creates you. Away the sun goes dancing across that sky. I race it, pressure building, forever in a hurry, but not you. You hurry for play, for enjoyment, for rest, you so simply exist. I hurry for stress, for discomfort, for consumption. You have been such an example for me, yet in the end, it is you I will consume as well. You do not know everything, but you exude such comfort in yourself. You display confidence in your body, your body so powerful, your body so magnificent! You are a machine, not in the way of robotics, but in the way of biological perfection. In the end your perfection will not reach its fruition. I will take your perfection and make it my own. I know this full well, and I knew this the whole time, but I will still do it. I come into the reality of my sadness from time to time, but I will go back to my routine. I will go down and back up again.
