Perfect moments

Yes it can make you cry. And make you laugh out loud. Suddenly you look around to see who heard you. But you are safe. Because there is no other.
Yet there are times when loneliness creeps in. And you long for a friend, anybody. You are not too choosy, you cannot afford to be. When you do find someone, you make that person your friend, lover or confidant. You have at last found a partner. Now you can share your joys and sorrows, now you can love someone and not be held responsible for loving.
Yet, have you really never wondered whether this person who is your lover actually exists in reality? Whether he is not just a fragment of your imagination, born out of your desperate need to love or be loved. Take away the need and does he really exist?
But it does not matter. What matters in the end is that you have given your best, and lived. You have shared what you could and borne the rest. And in between you have had a few moments of togetherness and a few moments of solitude, each perfect in its own way.
