Damon Salvatore

For one hundred and forty five years he has been in love with one person. One Person. And after all this time it’s that one person’s love he craves the most. So what’s wrong with that?

Well for one, men in this age don’t love like that, a kind of love that fuels you to live and not just a life, but your existence, a love that last for a hundred and forty years has to be a reason not just a situation.

I know it’s not possible for someone to fall in love with a fictional character but, it’s so difficult not to. If I ever got a chance I would fall in love with Damon Salvatore, not because he is that hot and has eyes like burning amber, but because, even after being dead for over a century he has more heart than any other man who is living. Even if it meant he would extinguish every last drop of blood from my body it would be worth it because the time I would get to spent with him, I could at least try and show him that his dead heart can live again, that there is someone who is willing to spend a century of her life waiting for him.

He tries so hard to convince the world of his evilness, he makes it so easy for everyone to judge his motives as.. as destructive. But all he is trying to do is hide that fact that he is scared, scared that if he fails he would lose the few people he still has in his life. It’s a kind of fear, the fear of being lost and spending eternity with nothing in his life, he didn’t choose to be what he is, but if he has to survive he has to do something and being bad is just so much more easy than being good just to get hurt again.

I don’t believe in vampires but a part of me still hopes that there can be a man like that, someone who can make loving me the reason for his existence. It’s difficult, nearly impossible yet every time I read or see you - Damon Salvatore, I start hoping for the unimaginable.

Its not every day that you come across someone who is willing to risk everything for you, but in the world of fiction it is not uncommon at all, in fact a lot of the recent love stories revolve around eternal love and how lovers would come together after a struggle. But each one of them would try to be the selfless person, someone who tries to give up being with the person they love the most so that they can protect them from whatever they think is so dangerous and life threatening.

Not once since I started reading or watching the Vampire Dairies has he been that selfless lover who tries to push the woman he loves away, which is the best part. Ok! So he may act bad or evil but he at least doesn’t leave her behind to mourn his absence, in fact he stays there establishing an unsaid vow that no matter what, he would be there, that no matter how flawful he is, he belongs to her and that is what true love is. It is not in the giving up but in the perusal.

Sometimes I wonder how death will be like? Will it be like you, will it have you, I sure hope it does, because in that one quick second between life and the afterlife I will have a fraction of a moment with you, and that Damon Salvatore, will be enough to show that there is someone else like you, someone who still believes that against all odds if you truly love someone you can be with them.
