Untiled

I feel lost, blinded by your soul shining so bright. I'm drawn towards the light radiating from you, like a moth to a flame. You consume me, overwhelming my senses. I strive to resist the temptation, but my heart and soul overpower my mind, giving in to the lust I crave. It's not physical; it's the connection between souls, an unspoken bond. The string the Norns weave into the web links us forever. I'm a child inside, a flawed man. I struggle with how to handle this love. Trying to give unconditionally, I fall short. I can't break through, can't conquer or win this fight for your love. I mess everything up, my eyes searching in a dark room for you. It feels like swimming against the current, and I am tired, yet I push forward. Slowly fading, sinking into the water, struggling and thrashing, I can't make it to shore. As I dip deeper, I picture your face, your smile, your laugh – bringing joy to a drowning heart.
