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.
