"After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul" - Veronica A. Shoffstall
Love is not a monster
But sometimes it blinds us
From seeing the truth in a personI've once loved a demon
But he wanted to kill me
He didn't care
Let's be real
That was his true intentHonestly, I was a bit foolish
With every blow I held on tighter
It almost cost me my life
I knew that's what he wantedFortunately, he lost
And all the chains were broken
I went through the gate
And developed the courage to let go.I am now free.
