I continue pondering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I pick and leave things around the house scattered. I rarely talk to people, and if I do, I speak with great lamity. Even though I wake up early every day, I try to delay my meals. I take baths much later in the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I tap my cigarette with my thumb from the inside to ash it, as if I\u2019m moving away from the last paragraph to this one.

The urge to let go of my walls slightly, not completely. Even though I\u2019m inept of letting go, she makes me want to try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I failed in a lot of relationships in my past life. Thinking about those, as I tap my cigarette, I\u2019m reminded of a verse in the Bible that I read lately.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Corinthians 13:8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLove never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love never fails. And If it failed, it was never love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I finally put the cigarette out, I murmur, \u201cMy love will not fail.\u201d I\u2019ll always love her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cYour demeanour has become a little softer, after.\u201d, she said. \u201cShe must be out of her mind.\u201d, I thought.
