No matter how accurate a ruler is,

By AdrianJ

it can never measure the distance between two hearts...

Love is not something one can decide. My precision is a decision and a point of pride. I never do anything without a reason, I have passions, but I ignore the seasons...

"Why do you love me so much?" Was a question posed to me today...

Try as I may, try as I try

For the life of me, I don't know why...

I just do...Do you? And by how much?

Love more than necessary, and you're the fool - but do we really want love that we can handle
like a tool?

Love never comes in pre-ordered wishes -
One side pulls, the other side pushes...
