Unattainability

Is that what makes love irresistibly attractive
with that mysterious force that ever is renewed
and always challenges and pulls you up again
to never let you down and never let you rest,
the fact that true love is so unattainable,
so that you always reach for what you cannot reach
and search forever for what never can be found?
The perfect absolute ideal exists,
and that’s why everybody always chase it,
but the problem is, that it is never practical
but always unattainably remain
the most alluring theory that never can be realized.
Still we try, we go on chasing it,
we never tire in that wonderful supremest vanity,
since that is mainly what keeps all of us alive.
