Is like a fine thread
that binds our being
together as one,
invisibly spanning any length

we

might try to put
between us. Hours.
Days. Weeks. Months.
Years. Miles. Love

still

conquers... But am I
really so naive to
trust someone so
completely? After you

have

scarred my heart with
your lies? Deciet. Lust.
Corrupt with greed.
If this is

love,

you can keep it.
I don't want it.
I'll wait for
something real.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take... but by the moments that take your breath away.
