Love is just the emotion, it's built upon a foundation: trust

Kisses are just flickers and sparks, only a taste of: lust

Physicality is just a flame, easy to start easier to put out: lust

Lies are just fabrications, written without truth, they crush: trust

You are just a faded picture, an image turning to ashes, an ancient memory.

Your lips are just a curse, they manifested a love story.

Your tears are shattering glass, they made me believe.

You are barely a though in a crowded mind, just a hopeless memory.
