La Douleur Exquise

La Douleur Exquise.

Literally translated from French:

The Exquisite Pain.

Being in love with someone you can't have;

unrequited love.

A collection of works that delve into the naive beginnings of love, brushed aside and forgotten with time. These feelings fester like a fungus, spreading further across a heart and mind, unknowingly reaping one of their sanity until nothing is left but a feeling unrequited in nature, but nonetheless stronger than anything else. A love that begins as soon as it ends; ephemeral, but everlasting; unrequited from the beginning.
