And We Have Liftoff

I can't quite describe it. But then again, it's one of those things that defies description; words may paint a picture, but no amount can fully do it justice.
It's like water. No cage of words can capture it; no net, no matter how carefully woven, can pull it in for inspection; and just when you think you have the answer in your hands, it slips away, leaving you only with droplets and the strangest sense of futility.
It's times like this, when you're falling and flying at the same time, that words utterly fail. Love is one of the few beautiful things that make this ugly world tolerable.
I'm in the clouds. We have liftoff.
