The Whims of Fate

Love is tethered to my heart forever fueled by hope, and yet, time has never created a bond it could not sever. A wish, faint and fading. Suffering its thorns, I cradled a rose, and in the throes of ecstasy, time froze; that's why it's called spellbinding, I suppose. A wish, faint and fading. Happiness is an elusive feeling when a hurting heart, in need of healing, confronts the truth trust has been concealing. A wish, faint and fading. I plunge into the depths of depression, wherein shadows become an obsession and reality's subject to question. A wish, faint and fading. I seek someone to share my heart and soul, allowing me to relinquish control to the whims of fate and, for once, feel whole. A wish, faint and fading.
