“There’s something alluring about the forbidden that leaves the want wanting for more.”
It’s funny that we never realize that the things we want and that the things we need are actually so different. But how do you tell a moth not to reach out for the light, when all it wants is to get closer to it without realizing that the flames are just a trap ready to burn the fool to ashes. The ‘want’ to get closer to that one thing drives us to the point where nothing else matters because we are blinded by the blindfold and every sane window in our brain is locked down. But when it comes to the person next to us, it’s so easy to tell the difference and all we want to do is shake the person and tell him that it’s not what they need and to think clearly. If only it was this easy to do when it came to us, then maybe there wouldn’t be that heaviness in our chest and that longing in our eyes……
