Seeing you is like falling
Into a deep abyss of confusion and pain and hurting
While feeling the sweetest most unimaginable bliss
A mix of fear and doubt and letting go
A bittersweet symphony
Talking to you is remembering
Reliving the ease, the comfort, the effortlessness
The feeling invincible, on top of the world
The conversations flowing like lemonade on a hot day
The warmth of the summer sun radiating on our bare skin
Knowing that what we had was forever
A seamless lie, the lines blurring in a haze
Lines between truth and façade
A beautiful aspersion, a finite infinity
Being with you is remembering.

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments which take your breath away.

You are only as strong as your weakest link.

Wonderful imagery near the middle (lemonade, summer sun). I love it!
