he felt… not quite calm, calm wasn’t the right word, but there were moments, moments when he wasn’t focused on the precise folding of his socks when he felt almost faint with relief. relief because at last, at last, at last. at last, there didn’t have to be any more, didn’t have to be any more burden, any more weight to carry. he took a moment to try and shake off the tightening in his chest. (…) and then, “i’m ready,” he whispered to himself. he found, to his surprise, with a sudden upsurge of grief that nearly knocked him flat, that he was telling the truth. he was ready. he began walking towards the sea.

Maybe that was the thing about love I never understood before Aiden. Like football and art, like anything that anyone in the world has ever wanted, love was a dream. And just like a dream, there were no assurances behind it. It didn’t grow on its own. It didn’t blossom without food to feed it. 

It was the greatest in its subtleties. 

It was the strongest in its selflessness. 

And it could be forever with someone who wasn’t afraid to never give up on the possibilities it presents.
