Love story written by Mercury, edited by Mars.

Love begins with a single word. Mercury writes it, soft and sharp. It starts fast. Light conversations build connection. Ideas spark. Minds meet. Words dance freely. There’s laughter. Curiosity. Cleverness. Everything feels easy, natural, open. It grows between shared thoughts. In looks, in timing, in tone. The bond deepens through speech. You talk. They listen. They respond. You feel known. You feel seen.

Then Mars arrives. It edits hard. Cuts through softness. Brings heat, urgency, action. No more waiting. No more floating. Passion rises. So does pressure. Mars is fire. Mercury is breath. Together they burn, suddenly and brightly. What felt like play now tightens. The pace quickens. The edge appears. Emotions mix with ego. Words gain weight. Tones shift. Glances harden. Love becomes a contest. You push. They push back.

Arguments bloom from small things. A pause. A phrase. A delay. Silence speaks louder now. Everything is louder now. Mercury speaks too much. Mars hears too little. One defends. One attacks. Minds clash. Hearts close. What was flirtation becomes frustration. What was spark becomes sting. One wrong sentence spirals fast. A text cuts deep. An apology comes late. Or never. Pain gathers in language. Even in tone. Even in silence.

Breakups come suddenly, not softly. The end isn’t quiet. It’s sharp. It’s loud. It hurts. It repeats. Words linger in memory. What they said. What you said. What no one said. Mars walks away angry. Mercury stays haunted. Love ends. The story echoes. You still hear their voice. You still feel yours tremble. It plays again sometimes. During sleep. During songs. A word pulls you back. A sentence holds you still.

Still, it wasn’t meaningless. It mattered. Deeply. Even now, it matters. This love carved something real. It changed you. It left marks. You learned things. Hard things. Necessary things. How fast love turns. How sharp words cut. How silence screams louder. You remember everything. You hold pieces still. The joke. The look. The fight. The goodbye.

Not all Mercury-Mars love fails. Some survive the fire. With effort. With maturity. With care. Some grow from tension. Passion becomes purpose. Arguments shift to understanding. But most don’t last. Not like that. Most burn out fast. Leave ash behind. Leave memories behind. Leave questions behind. Was it real? Was it worth it?

The answer lives in feeling. It lives in silence. In the sentence unfinished. In the message unsent. In the heat that still lingers. Mercury wrote it all. Mars closed the chapter. One began with light. One ended in fire. That’s how it goes sometimes. The lovers don’t survive. But the story does. And you carry that story. Quietly. Always. Still burning in parts.
