The Heart

Love, I learn, is not something you can work on. You can’t possibly work your way into someone’s heart like how you would climb a mountain. You can never do such things because unlike climbing mountains, you can always rest assure that there will be a point at the top of the mountain that you can reach and when you’re up there, the view will be great. It will be worth the time going up there with sweat and tears side by side as you try to reach your destination. 

Sadly, it is impossible to make someone love you. The heart is constant when it comes to love. The heart can love a person for as long as it allow itself to be. The heart can change but not when it comes to love. Once you love someone, there’s no turning back. You will love that person for the rest of your life even when you’re no longer together because when it comes to love, the heart doesn’t forget. The heart does not forget and even when they leave a bigger portion of their heart to someone else, there will always be a room for their past lovers. Why? Because the heart is kind and it takes in the beautiful memories and disregard the pain. Though the heart is kind, you still can’t work your way into it because the heart get to decide if it wants you to be in it and there’s nothing you can do about it. 

You’re nothing. Nothing.

I wish it would be as easy as climbing a mountain but even though you’re climbing the tallest, harshest mountain, it will still be easier than climbing into someone’s heart.
