The Lengths of Love

How far will a heart stretch when love starts to hurt too much? it's bursting at the seams. I'm beginning to lose touch of everything i thought that love was supposed to be; like natural, sweet, and simple, innocent, and care-free. love used to be easy, like taking breaths of air. now it's a constant struggle. the fight just isn't fair. I only want to love you and be loved back, of course. though it seems with every fight, we just keep getting worse. we don't want our love to end; what we have is far too pure. but i don't know how much more pain we can endure. the heart is pretty fragile. you should handle it with care. lately mine is battered up from all the wear and tear. I'm trusting you once more. my heart is in remission. it's yours for life, as long as it stays in good condition.
