Love and heartbreak? The two words are synonymously linked, ruling the way we perceive love forever. An eternally, entwining, and downward looking pairing like this can create vicious circles of poisonous ‘trust’. Of course, if the pain isn’t satiated the spirals and heartbreak can become so immense and inescapable that undoubtedly your heart won’t ‘even bleed anymore’. You will awake and arise like a dead corpse, wondering where the next sweet stab of pain will come from. Too much heartbreak however can’t ever be contained or swept aside either, so don’t devalue the power of love. Eventually a poisonous saturation begins within the heart ready to spit at all culprits. Playing the crying game with someone’s heart is a risky business especially if a few words can floor you.
