Reality Check

The ultimate betrayal:
The giving of body and soul.
Enjoy those stolen kisses 
Before your actions take their toll.
Hearts aren't unbreakable 
And nothing is free.
Most good things
Just aren't meant to be.
Something better
Doen't just come along,
Not unless your life is a cheesy love song.
