Climbing through Clarity

In those moments of clarity everything falls into place. He knows what to do and what not to.
It is more then understood that she does not want anything else with him. She enjoys him and the friendship, but that is how far she will go.
Him on the other side, won't let it go. She cut him deeper then he thought.
He is healing quite fast on the outside but its on the inside that things happens.
It's often music or states of mind that triggers this reactions. He starts to think about her and he gets slow.. wishing that she could be next to him for just a moment.
Holding hands, kissing, caressing and hugging. Breathing the sweet scent of her body.
He seems to got stuck

I guess he is not as strong mentally as I am, but on the other side. He is more passionate and dares to express his feelings. I can see the struggle that he goes through, every time that he hits that big big wall of hers, the climbing does not end.
He falls every time...

I always ask him, why do you keep climbing every single time.
He always replies to me with the same answer:

"For me, this is living.."
