don't you think relationships are like a box of tissue paper?
in that box, two tissues, which has no link to each other at all are joined together by their edges. just their edges. nothing else.
they didn't agree to meet earlier, but somehow, their fates are intertwinned and they are set together in the box. a box that enclosed each others fate together.
somewhere along the road, they have to endure obstacles while stuck so closely to each other, with space much less than each other would expect to have.
and before they actually have the chance to interact with each other, they are separated and most of the time, it's because of an external factor.
the strength of the tissue paper is also very much like what the strength of a relationship has.
it's so useful in happy times, and sad, in tough and in smoothsailing ones.
it's so strong that it can withstand mucus (being gross here, but true) and absorb tears.
but also, it can be so weak and be ripped apart by just two little fingers.
however, one fact remains is that once a tissue has been used, it can never be reused again.
just like how a relationship works.
once a relationship has been broken, it's going to be tough to get it back again.
we know that we should just throw away the dirty old piece of tissue and move on to a new piece, but somewhere in our heart, we realise that it isn't that easy.
cause part of us has to be thrown away with the tissue as well.
and it's not that easy. it's never going to be easy.
i realise that i still need you.
