&ldquo;If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.&rdquo; <br /> ― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh<br /> <br /> &quot;Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn&#039;t stop for anybody.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Stephen Chbosky


Down,

down,

Deeper it goes.


Down,

down,

‘til it’s in the core.


Starts as an ache,

moving down,

down,

until there is nothing left to poison.


Down,

down,

until it reaches the core that is essential for life,

essential for you,

for me.



Down,

down,

until it reaches the core of that thing called the heart,

the heart that is made to hold passion and love,

poisoned by itself,

a suicide.

Inspired by emotion provoked by a song. Not perfect.
