Absence of Strength

I have lived through something so malevolent to love as hatred. I swim through this sea of lukewarm agony. I crash upon the brutal jetty's of devotion's failure. It is simply impossible to explain to you the shortness of breath I am constantly feeling, for your love to me is as crucial as air, without it I am doomed to suffocation and suffering. Truer to life than change is constant, this lingering reality in my mind is forever condemned to a fictitious abnormality in your eyes...I am forever the Ghost of our endless affection, but the effect of our love has left me a Ghost
