Shattered Lives

As I lay there wrapped in his arms, listening to the sound of him breathe, I couldn't help but think about how this is the last place I thought I'd be just a few months ago, but there was no place else that could have been better than this. And the knowledgeable part of me knows that this can't last, that it won't last. But with my head on his chest, listening to his heart beat in my ear and feeling our affection for each other grow more and more with each passing moment, makes the naive part of me think that if I just hope and pray hard enough then maybe, just maybe, this could be my future.
