DEADLY EMOTIONS

Blinded by our hearts, we often find ourselves entangled in gates adorned with clear red flags,
yet our hearts persist in the pursuit of a
matching heart. We surrender every fiber of our being to one soul, until our affection becomes a burden too heavy to bear alone. They take, our every effort for granted, and toy with our emotions and beliefs.

But love, oh love, how it blinds us so! 

We plunge further down the rabbit hole, 
falling prey of occasional sweet words and 
tender gestures, though we sense the fading 
storm. Trapped, with no way out, we remain 
glued to them, ensnared by the grip of our own impassioned folly.
