fate laughed

another one has slipped away. no good-bye. just gone. held on as much as i could. any more would have been improper. but in the end it was not enough, not that i ever thought it was. i thought i was done with past mistakes, but they don't seem to be done with me. "reap what you sow, do unto others, what goes around comes around." the slap stings more now.

i fear the inevitable. i'm sure fate just laughs when we use words like "always" and "forever". what could we possibly know about such things? the very same current that brought us together will surely someday pull us apart, and no human strength can resist it.

but resist it anyway. maybe fate will remember us for trying.
