heartbreaker

Sometimes distances seem like a cruel joke. Kilometres are just numbers on a map, but in reality they turn into a whole drama with the ceiling instead of a conversation partner and internal dialogues that never save you like a simple ‘hello’ on the phone. But here's the trick: a single message can pull you out of the darkest pit and bring a smile back to your face faster than any medicine.

And even if your old car is barely making it down the motorway and your bank account is sighing modestly after another whim, all of that loses its meaning when there are a pair of eyes waiting ahead of you that melt away your fatigue. The world immediately becomes simpler: there is the road, there is music in the speakers, and there is the promise of a meeting. Everything else can be left behind, let it catch up if it wants to.
