Down where the city meets the sea.

How long does it take for a heart to break? In my experience, its about a tenth of a second. The amount of time it takes to rebuild? It can take a lifetime. You hear about the women who lost their newly wedded husbands in the war, the ones who never moved house, never changed their rooms and never found another person to go through life with, they never truly heal. 

I don't know whether morals are different in these days or whether we are simply more connected to the world around us, whether we are able to contact others with similar experiences and be able to move on together or we just don't understand the partnership or immense feelings of love. 

I believe it is a bit of both, that we are able to connect and progress with another and that we don't see love as a once in a lifetime thing like they did back then, we imagine it as a kind of let's see how far we can take this sort of thing. I don't know which one is proper because time has moved on, what I hope is that even though we live in a different era the intensity, the meaning, is still the same.
