You know that love

You know that love 

Is never fair

It chooses

It rejects 

It hurts

You know too

It's because of this

Every nanosecond counts

You choose

You try to hold on

Sometimes it ends

Sometimes it lasts

A lifetime

An eternity

Each passing moment

You hope it will last

Or not

Or you move on

Or you delay and cling

For as long as fate

Would let it

Or you let go

Find new faces

Consider new lives

You move on

But you don't forget

You are bound

In love's shadow

You wait

Or you stop looking back
