I’m falling through lies of love and loss.
Trying to find the barrier between what life is and what it can become.
Feeling my way through darkness like a newborn child unable to breathe.
Only hope remains.
Hope of a future in which I no longer fear what may happen,
But rather find meaning in the potential.
Potential of a love that doesn’t tear me apart.
