Singularity

Nathaniel Hackey

You are a light
In the darkest places of my mind
Relativity is only perception
Yet your love always freezes time
 Be the strong hand to lift me up
And ill nurture you when you are weak
Be the safe haven to my heart...
locked in a box in your soul,
there you will hear it beat.

    I loved down to the soul, was told I brought them from the ashes they had been trapped in , showing unconditional bringing them into the light. Always offered my hands and arms so they knew I wouldn’t never let them fall, I wanted them to know that they know I only wanted them safe and that love from the soul is true
    I gave my soul for real love.
    I lost both.
    Trying not to let bitterness change my kindness of who I am.
    Trust, honesty and faithfulness, no secrets and could tell each other anything and everything no matter what, Well that’s what we both agreed before any emotions , I believed on that basis, we both agreed we were wanting the exact relationship.
    My truest love was blinded by deceit.
    That’s never bring able to love again!!!
