Heart Balls & Swagger

A Relationship Narrative

[heartballsswagger]

Hold on, little girl

Show me what he's done to you

Stand up little girl

Broken heart can't be that bad

When it's through, it's through

Fate will twist the both of you

So come on baby, come on over

Let me be the one to show you

I'm the one who wants to be with you

[heartballsswagger]

Fading out of Existence

I saw you taken away,

The fruits of my labour

Surely, someone can hear!

Someone can see! Someone can feel!

But oh, my veiled anguish!

My sightless eyes gaze through it all,

Beholding emptiness,

Just as my heart did,

Crushing emotions as it welled up trying to break free

And mortals fleeted in and out in my dizzy,

Deriding me, laughing at my shame,

Spitting and cursing,

Tearing through my heart with uninhibited slander

If only I,

Roared with terrible rage,

Smote apparitions near with my terrible tongue,

Crushed walls that imprisoned me,

Wailed my broken heart with gut-wrenching moans

But I only did what I always did,

Slowly faded away from existence

Portion for the Damned

"I will bring it to you before you rise from your place, and indeed, I am for it, strong and trustworthy."

In order to forget her, to put her out of his mind, he sought another. And each time his heart opened to hers, he came to find, this mad and truly broken heart of his, ran back to her once more.

[heartballsswagger]

Sometimes the only path lying before us is to walk away from everything we know. The hardest part is walking it.

Conviction

He raised his hand to hold her. She flinched. "How do I know you love me?". "I will die for you," he said. "Do you know what that means?" she asked. "You tell me". She looked at him in his eyes and said, "it means to live. To take someone's hand and not let go, even if the whole world is full of scorn and anger, unmindful of what the world says. There are umpteen men who talk about dying. Will you also fly away like the rest?"

And his hand stopped there trembling, searching the courage to hold hers.

"And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation."

[heartballsswagger]

"In crying, there is much pleasure, peace and strength. Anyone who has not sat alone, weeping and wailing over the memory of someone, has been deprived of one of the joys of life, on which hundreds of laughs have been sacrificed."

[heartballsswagger]

"Disappointment is the extreme limit of intense longing."

Love, living is a burden - as you have seen
