If courage means a strong desire to live in the form of readiness to die then my love is courageous. With vision it creates, with faith it proves, with fear it resists the loss of heart. If heart practices old experiences as the mind learns new ones, then by instinct, not only reason, does my heart beat so for you. Yearning, burning desire to live before the chance to die, with a tear, the dew of compassion. If compassion is showing the best part of a good man's life, all the little nameless, unremembered acts of kindness, then allow me to be merciless as I cultivate, seed, and nurture the strongest of bonds, love. And if to love someone is eternal then let us inhale the bittersweet fragrance of chaos, travel the twisted path of unrest, fulfill each expectations of the other, and, hand in hand, create a world that others may reach but are unable to touch. create an addiction .... share a smile!! |
