Broken pieces

Glimpses

They tell you to leave

They ask, why stay if it hurts you?

You deserve better, they say

But people often forget one thing that is the core of it all

The love

They forget that it's a person with whom you share a story with

A person who chose you as much as you chose them 

A person whom you love, a person who loves you back 

As much as it hurts 

As much as there is pain

There are also these fleeting  moments of pure epiphany, where all that remains are both of your souls

Entangled 

You were my light

I bathed in your sunshine and lay in our flower field 

Now, I'm drowning 

Slowly letting the water consume me 

Glimpses of light keeping me alive and hopeful

But that's what they remain

Glimpses 

Of a past 

Of a happiness that's slowly fading away 

But I remain here

I remain breathing 

For you, for us 

I wonder love, how much time will pass until the air is cut out of my lungs?

Until I lay my final breath and succumb or shatter in a ray of light 

But don't worry love I'll remain here

Because I believe in love, in you, in us 

You know I used to believe that love conquers all 

That if love remains all will be well and everything will get fixed 

If you love me and I love you, everything wil eventually get its happy ending 

Tell me love 

Will this prove to be true?
