  Summary

  In the fog of emotion we assume what we cannot hope to wish for. If we avoid our passionate longing for another, the sentiments only grow, much to our own discomfort.

  Oftentimes we desire what is just out of reach, causing our own inner turmoil as we desperately scrounge for ways to internalize our pain. Yet, we remain human, and our wants can never truly be buried forever.
