love.
the deadliest of all deadly things.
it kills you both when you have it and when you don't.
but that isn't it, exactly.
the condemner and the condemned.
the executioner, the blade, the last minute reprieve.
the gasping breath and the rolling sky above you,
and the thank you, thank you God.
love.
it will kill you and save you, both.
