After spending a little over 4 years studying Computer Engineering, it would be extremely difficult not to have some engineering vocabulary sneak into your love letters. And here is one of such words — equilibrium.

I felt that I was being stretched beyond my comfort zone. I was pulled on all sides by different forces. Yet, my life remained in a state of balance. I was not being torn apart, I was not being derailed. I think this is what love should do to us. It should keep our life in check. It should inspire us to be better people, it should pull the best out of us and pull us away from dangerous distractions.

Enjoy this piece that is almost 3 years old, inspired by the concept of equilibrium.

Let me tell you the Equilibrium Story

It’s all about you my angel, baby, cutie, darling, eyinju, my favourite, my first, my only…

The first force is anxious anticipation. Sometimes I feel like just getting married immediately. I abhor the restrictions and limitations. Wedding pictures all over, people on the street are walking in twos. And I whisper in my heart, when will it be my turn.

There is a second force. It is called confident conviction. In as much as a part of me want to get things done in a hurry, a part of me is confident. You are mine and I am yours. And when that reality dawns, every worry and fear disappears. I just knock off the thoughts of anxiety with a smile.

And there is a third force that perfects the balance. I’m not sure what name to call it. It’s more like a passionate patience. You’re my best choice and I’m willing to wait for a perfect time to be with you. There’s no time to long for love to wait. That’s my fuel.

My love for you is in equilibrium ;-)
I believe in our destiny
I have a confident hope
I love you
