Dear Love,
Well, your arrows didn't miss.
I suppose I'm simply confused. You come in so many forms, and so many are deceiving. Backstabbers. Traitors.
Why do you do it?
Is it entertaining to watch?
Or are you trying to build a resistance, a shield, so when the right one finally comes along, it's that much sweeter, or that much more bitter.
Why is it that you come at either the hardest or the best of times?
How do I avoid you when you are, in fact, inevitable?
Sincerely,
Hurting
