Love/Jealousy
You are honest.
You are sunlight, and air;
you are the feeling of a new spring, the sensation of joy, and the warmth that spreads from it.
You are Passion.
you inspire the uninspired, and part an ocean of impossibility, so that I might walk through it.
You are everything.
Why then, can I never seem to have you?
you are a liar.
You are a thief of hearts and minds;
a deceiver of the naive, and betrayer of the trusting
You are wicked.
Your emotion is an ugly shell, protecting an iside hollow, and lacking purpose
You are nothing.
Why then, are you all I have?
You are sunlight, and air;
you are the feeling of a new spring, the sensation of joy, and the warmth that spreads from it.
You are Passion.
you inspire the uninspired, and part an ocean of impossibility, so that I might walk through it.
You are everything.
Why then, can I never seem to have you?
you are a liar.
You are a thief of hearts and minds;
a deceiver of the naive, and betrayer of the trusting
You are wicked.
Your emotion is an ugly shell, protecting an iside hollow, and lacking purpose
You are nothing.
Why then, are you all I have?
