Everyone that I've ever been with
I fell in love with
For a singular moment in time
Because thats how fiercely I commit
Invest, give
And then I've broken from
What became my own
Self inflicted cage
And released them
Only to have them return later in time
To give me love
And feed them with some short sweet truths
Making my mark on them last
For forever and a day
Until the time comes
Where I don't love and release

But for now
I let it swoop and sweep
Right through me
Knowing my greater purpose
In this very short
And very long
Life.
