Once i was as unbreakable as a diamond
but now all i know is weakness.  
In the act of betrayal... no body wins,
especially if love is involved.

When you believe in beauty,
you often encounter true pain more often.
You may try to ignore the lies and move on,
or forgive like an angel
but it is almost impossible to fill yourself
with the passion you once knew.

Those whom you love
have shattered you once again.

So now,
what do you do?
Who do you turn to?
Who do you love?
This was inspired by a quote from one of my many favorite books, *Under the Never Sky*. The main character puts it best saying, "People can be cruelest to those they love."
