We've burned ourselves hopelessly to the idea of love. But, is it ever enough to just let the fire die? Pain seeks to every inch of our systems, Bleeds to every part of our existences. How can we break to grieve when all we strive is to give love that's never needed? We've been in love with people who didn't love us back. We've been loved by people who we didn't love back. But which is worse : To be broken or to break another? The memories we can bare, But seeing them again makes us feel unaware. Seeing a smile upon their face knowing we're the reason for it. A smile : Fake : to try to move forward. A smile : Evil : to get revenge. We can't undo what's been done. We can't unsay what's been said. The saddest part of it all is... We can't forgive ourselves and they can never forget.

Broken Love
We've burned ourselves hopelessly to the idea of love. But, is it ever enough to just let the fire die? Pain seeks to every inch of our systems, Bleeds to every part of our existences. How can we break to grieve when all we strive is to give love that's never needed? We've been in love with people who didn't love us back. We've been loved by people who we didn't love back. But which is worse : To be broken or to break another? The memories we can bare, But seeing them again makes us feel unaware. Seeing a smile upon their face knowing we're the reason for it. A smile : Fake : to try to move forward. A smile : Evil : to get revenge. We can't undo what's been done. We can't unsay what's been said. The saddest part of it all is... We can't forgive ourselves and they can never forget.
