Love Harder

Do I have to fight
For our love?
Or was our love
Devoured by night?

Our txts became less frequent
Our talks more callous
Falling out of sequence
Our emotions becoming malice

Sorting through empty promises
Your words are meaningless
Promising marriage 
Now everything's deranged
 
Mending my broken heart
Soothing my battered heart
Learning to let go
Finding my spark, my glow

I won't be conquered 
I refuse to be defeated 
I will not squander 
I will love harder.
