When a man has found a woman's love, he's discovered the most precious substance in the universe. A life lived is hopefully full of emotion. Emotions bring us to so many places, and as we arrive at these destinations we can cry, laugh, hate, love, and feel whatever our destination asks us to feel. At no better destination does anyone wish to arrive than in love and upon arrival, a man wishes more than anything to find that most precious substance just mentioned. Still, when he arrives at this place called love, life continues to demand his undivided attention and causes the beauty of love to look faded and dull. A life lived always seeks to live in loves destination, but life lived doesn't make navigating this place easy. In this struggle to navigate, he can only hope to stay in love. And so a life lived through love goes as it has always gone. But about that word so, it's an okay word because a life lived in love is worth a struggle, anyone who's ever lived there will tell you so.
Living in this place, when a man discovers he loves this woman in return, he knows he's found loves true destination. For them, the light found in their love has given him every color he ever hoped to have and it's with this color that he finds nothing but ultimate beauty in this place he'd always felt to be only as real as the city of El Dorado. So while he'd sighed before, he's never sighed with true contentment. He's grateful for this sound, this sound he makes as he experiences this truly contented sigh. Then, simply as a matter of logic and fact, time and space makes its presence known as a life lived happens.
So while living in love, life throws so many things his way. While love floods his heart with all its warm light, he has the opportunity to experience every color every rainbow has always offered everyone. Best of all and most importantly to them together, with all the tenderness in the world, he experiences all this light and all these colors with her! Together with her, he chooses to see bright happy colors and his heart smiles abound. Eventually, the science of time and space effects this place where they reside in love, and his lived life allows the light in life to become dull. Navigating love now becomes harder for him as he notices more and more colors that to him are darker and colder.
So now when a life lived has asked him to consider the attention and loyalty it needs and as he dutifully gives life lived its due, as loves light begins to diminish in his heart, he becomes ever more cognizant of the truth of this woman's love. In love, but more and more despite her love, bad taste has a life lived seeing him choose to drink over sharing her continued precious substance. Still, as drunk as he gets, she continually brings him into her home wherein love she keeps him warm and safe from harm. Then, as time and space wear him down, he becomes louder, more menacing, even baleful. Even here in love, the place where her heart has always thrived, she begins to feel insecure, and doubt knocks on her door and none of his gratitude can alleviate doubts knock. In his heart, as he feels loves light dimming, when he's not run away to live in destinations that ask him to hate and cry, he becomes darker and acts colder toward all the love she freely offers him. Living life means he now forcibly takes from her all the love she freely offers him. But a life lived is a funny thing and although he's often living in the cold and acting on his darker impulses, he's still aware her love for him is the most precious substance in the universe, and despite his tendency to follow his inner demons, there are still those moments lying next to her while he steals her loving light, in his shame he manages to gently caress her lovely cheek and she feels the spark of light still in his heart. They both sigh an uncertain sigh.
