&lrm;&quot;We live in a universe in which there are laws, just as there is a law of gravity. If you fall off a building it doesn&#039;t matter if you&#039;re a good person or a bad person, you&#039;re going to hit the ground.&quot;<br /> - Mickael Bernard Beckwith

Because it's dark
That's why I'm falling
Into believing that
You don't love me
Like you say you do.

How could you with
How I don't seem to
Be happy or alright
Even when you're there
And part of me like the
Other half of my heart.

And I can't get the storm
Of my mind to die down
And worry that you won't be
Faithful or that you don't
Want me to be yours when there
Are so many more choices
That I know you see everyday.
