Must I pour over these words? To find the root of this deceit. And with ever aching eyes, find this truth hidden from me? Sever the ties, the brightest mourning star falls from the sky. I've never felt more inside my head than when we'd lay silent. How do you hold so tight? Why do you cast aside? You held my barely beating heart, I never felt more alive. Remain a defeatist, a defeater of my best intentions.

We still feel that these troubles in our minds are our own creation. It isn't happenstance. It comes from, our own hands. We've lost the want of love. If it wasn't for this sense of dread, we feel the fear we feel it in our heart. It's a killer and a comfort, rotten pride and bitter truths. And to think, we had this light in us. The world was grim, and it still is. To think we wore our hearts on our sleeves. When will is weak, we give in to needs.

She'd ask what was on my mind. What was I thinking? I'd tell her time was a construct of man. It's not that we're running out it, her patience had worn thin. We had been bound by more than threadbare heart strings. We lived in lust. Oh how we'd seen, sunny scenes. No one seems to sing about. Oh how I'd been a source for sorrow, if she left I would not follow. There are mounds of glass to swallow, I have not bled enough to make a penance for these sins. I stay busy, making Möbius strips out of tarnished golden rings. I asked her what she thought. She replied; it is better to have lived in lust, than to have ever loved at all.
