Passion Killers
trust is what I gave
handed it out to perfect criminals
passion killers
my heart was a whore
tossed it around the room
met many ladies who said they'd be true
got shot then shot again and again
left for dead
thought I would never get back up
have you ever wanted
to feel the fire burn you
all up
at my wits' end
you took my hand
honesty, I had nothing to lose
told you take me if me is worth anything
cupped your hands around my face
kissed me in away I never felt before
it was a commitment
promising with no words
you will be HERE
have you ever wanted
to feel the fire burn you
all up
it's funny how people talk about love
like it's so easily attainable
maybe for me it was just pure luck
right place, right time
the heavens took pity
probably bored of other heavenly duties
said, hey
let's give this pathetic case
a taste of true happiness

True that...may be those people we were lucky enough to find true love without any struggle....but the fact is that for most of us, love remains ever elusive...
Glad to know that you finally found love.😊😊😊
Nice spill.

Love is hard work. It's not easy to stand by in those very dark nights. But for me there came a time where those dark nights were few and the days are many beautiful ones.
I would like to think when the one comes along you will know. That's how it was for me. The minute I met her it was like finding a best friend I didn't know was out there.
Thanks for the read 😁

Keep the hope. Sometimes the thought of failure can drive a person to fail.

Sometimes it takes enormous effort to keep things intact...and sometimes it's as effortless as breathing. But then again, as an asthmatic, even breathing can be a struggle. But when the right one comes into the picture, the scene is complete and perfect. And so worth the work. Beautiful...
