If I Knew, Then I'D Know

Promises are made to be kept, though they are wrapped in a cocoon of razor wire. The words that fall out of your mouth turn into insects, and are instantly consumed by the reptiles. Everything consumes everything, all God's creatures go below. It is quite evident that our souls at one time were of a single unit prospering and thriving. Ripping through the Cosmosphere. Splitting and burning endlessly. Scattered about, only to be reunited. This magnetic pull I feel is not of me. This longing I have to be with you is unnameable. I don't fear it. I don't fight it. I want to embrace it, understand it. the unexplainable is definitely one of life's more perplexing subtleties.
