Love does not die of just a single blow,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g2p75YOXn
Its life flows out quite slowly over years,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaALSRk0j9
One drop follows another as love flows,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYecr6Xxgyh
From thousands of unfatal cuts and tears.161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7F9slBfiR
161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEhHlyPF9m
A thousand little stings from tongue or eye,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuJmhUe7kY
A thousand unkind words from me and you,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS9EcZtaHL
A thousand "I told you so’s" piled on high,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpukB72xtC
A thousand battles lost, refought anew.161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7XUSj3aA5
161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY7aAvkso1
Each wound a scab that grows harder with time,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDZ3Cob81b
Covering festering hurts that won't heal,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu7r7L1uk3
An unwise word morphs to betrayal sublime,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1h8cGolGl
Suppurating reminders all too real.161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhCQb4y5LJ
161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXxWiMFt9A
Simple kindness is lost from lack of use,161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1TwKDDGFw
And what remains just a facade in truth.161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwTYZaa78t
161Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4ifWY3Boa
