necessary and altogether impossible (october '08)
Love is necessary, some people say
The way another person fits in so seamlessly...
You can't remember a time when you didn't know them.
Perhaps they've aways been a part of you
Just waiting for the day when they'd come to the surface
Lingering just far enough way that you can't erase
Or embrace them
This, sadly, makes love altogether impossible.
You need it, you don't. You want it- or won't.
Love breaks your heart, some people say...
This is a lie.
People break hearts- collecting them like stamps or postcards.
When your heart gets broken- beaten to the ground-
How can you forget them? The culprit?
The love makes you remember, reminds you why they're necessary...
And that makes it altogether impossible to forget.
