Romance the Chance

This coldness still, untrue; unreal Consumed by doubt, more cracks in the wall - For certain I loath all that I feel (Lost in the Beauty of my fateful fall) Dry of words, and void of strength, I try and save my dying chance (I never thought I'd trek this length) But, Lo! I dance a dead Romance...

Thanks, SP! I guess "lost love" does have a certain universal appeal, but that's the only relatable line in the whole piece, I think. But thanks for dropping by <3

A very realistic perspective of love and angst. It inspired me to write some lines. (Check your last line again, something's off)

ARGH! Thank you for spotting that. I'm usually a careful proof-reader, but when I know a line in my head, I will hear it and not read it. <3
