Love Never Fails

She watches him kill himself slowly.
He's blowing out another cloud of smoke.
She starts to cry, but tries to hide it.
He looks at her with regretful eyes.
He wants to quit for her but he doesn't know how.
She is his whole universe.
He loves her with all he's got.
She goes for the blade, but he stops her.
He loves her so much and yet she has no clue.

Smile ˜ Love never fails and where there is love beauty and joy ˜ I believe that if we can see beyound all of the smoke and trust in love then, what blades? As for being ones universe so to speak; beauty begets beauty and in this stars never fail to shine upon its endless love wherein the universe becomes theirs ˜ Love always, John!:) ˜
