You Say

You say I am of rare breed. A chivalrous heart... Laying my carpet at your feet carries many burdens. You call me knight in shining armour. A pure heart... This suit encases deceit and lies. It is tarnished with false heresy. You dub me your dragon slayer. A brave heart... Even the core of life will desist when pierced by righteousness. You want me as your king crusader. A noble heart... Nobility searches for truth and justice. It is a title given by the false prophet. You say I am your palace, your world. A foolish heart... For all living creatures and objects in this life wither and eventually die.

Well, this is well written, flows beautifully, and sounds beat generation for it lacks hope. Have been reading some beat poetry lately, so... hafta say, this is darn good. Probably better than I've been reading.
Kudos. Never take yourself too seriously so that you lose what your are trying to do. {smiles]

My theory is this:

If someone says I'm good, I will believe that person. I will give this person my trust, I will not doubt that he/she is lying.

If something goes wrong, and I have drifted apart from this person, then it is fate that has set us apart, not his/her lies.

Always believe in love and its beautiful words. It will make both of you happy.
