We were always warned about obvious danger. Like wearing your seatbelt, looking both ways before crossing the street, and taking candy from strangers. Never about the danger that creeps in and refuses to leave. Never about the danger that only life experience can bring. Never about the danger that fills our minds each and every day. What I really wish I was warned about is the type of love that consumes all that you are. That's what's really dangerous. You're dangerous.. & candy from strangers seems a lot safer than my heart in your hands.

Candy From Strangers
We were always warned about obvious danger. Like wearing your seatbelt, looking both ways before crossing the street, and taking candy from strangers. Never about the danger that creeps in and refuses to leave. Never about the danger that only life experience can bring. Never about the danger that fills our minds each and every day. What I really wish I was warned about is the type of love that consumes all that you are. That's what's really dangerous. You're dangerous.. & candy from strangers seems a lot safer than my heart in your hands.
