Breathing Gets Harder

Being in love is like balancing between two worlds.
A mermaid trying to stay afloat between air and water.
Except that this mermaid can't breathe underwater.
If you stay too long in the air, you'll dry up and die.
If you stay underwater for too long, you'll run out of air and drown.
You fight to stay afloat.
To keep this relationship going.
Its a ship.
A heavy one.
One with loads of responsibilities.
You need to keep the one you love happy all the time without putting too much pressure on them.
To pamper the love of your life without suffocating them in your love.
Its hard, you never know what to do.
You won't ever know what's right.
To love without hurting.
If you let her wander off too far, she might never come back.
If you always stay by her side, she'll feel chained to you.
Do you love me? Is what they always ask you.
You can say yes a thousand times without any hesitation.
But when you look at her in the eyes and she looks away.
It feels like a piece of your heart was torn and thrown away.
It hurts, but you continue to love her.
Because you know she's the one.
You can't eat, you can't sleep, you can't do anything without thinking about her.
You're addicted to her.
Her voice is the drug you'll never get enough of.
Her face is the honey this bee will never get tired of.
Her touch is the feeling of being in Paradise.
Does she feel the same?
I don't know.
Could you tell me?
