One afternoon, my eyes found yours, and from that moment, I knew you owned me.
I tried to brush it aside. But one morning, you passed by and I was reminded. And I knew there was no escaping.
You awakened in me, something I, for so long denied. Been badly burned and I still am chaffed. But then again, you remind me that something is not won, unless it is waged.
The terrain looks familiar. How many times have I passed this way? The familiar landmines. The enemy foxholes. The charred remains of a conquered territory.
I am scared.
But I promise this time, I will learn from my mistakes and not back out. But will be more careful.

like a chaffed philosopher once said, "crushes are like candies. temporary cures for hunger but they only mask the void."
