Sometimes,
no matter how secure you are in someone's arms,
no matter how tightly you hold on to the person's hand;
you'll still find yourself falling
dangerously in love with someone else.

Have you seen or read the book 'Bridges of Madison County'? Then maybe you know how it was.
What would you do if you find yourself, reliving again and again, those moments when both of walked along the beach, not even touching each other, but there's something about the way things are that's almost magical? When you find yourself sitting beside this person and both of you looking over the horizon, sighing, knowing that there's something - but you live in a world of complications.
I do wonder what is being asked, when he said what he said. But he was wise not to ask you to choose. There's a lot of questions hanging there, but he let it be. Wise enough for his years.
Still thinking, still in thoughts but wishing happiness through the winds. But the heart wanders where he is, and embracing the thoughts of yesterday.

Math tells us three of the saddest love stories.
Tangent lines who had one chance to meet
and then parted forever.
Parallel lines who were never meant to meet and
Asymptotes who can get closer and closer
but will never be together.
