"HEY YOU!"
THE DARKNESS IS COMING
IT'S ALREADY HERE AND
IT'S BEEN HERE AWHILE
TAKE A KISS ON THE CHEEK, AND
JUST SMILE AND WAVE GOOD-BYE.

THESE EGG SHELLS ARE STARTING
TO HURT MY FEET.
I WANT TO JUST TAKE A MINUTE TO
TAKE A BREAK.
IVE BEEN ALLS SLAVE TO THE GRIND.
NO APPRECIATION, NO "THANK YOU"
OF ANY KIND. COULD IT BE THAT
WERE JUST 2 LOVERS IN LOVE
WAISTING OUR TIME?

I SEE THE PAIN ON YOUR EYES,
YES, IT HURTS ME TOO. WERE
RUNNING OUT OF OPTIONS,
SO WHAT DO WE DO? JUST LET
EACH OTHER GO? SOMETIMES
I WONDER, "WHAT ELSE IS
THERE TO DO?"

YOU ARE SO QUICK TO SNAP!
SO, THEREFORE, I SNAP BACK!
WHAT YOU GIVE, IS WHAT YOU
GET BACK!

ALL THIS TENSION IS HINDERING
MY SPIRIT. IT'S BLACKENING MY
HEART-EVERY LAST BIT.

WERE SUPPOSED TO BE 2 LOVERS
LOVE. I DON'T WANT TO HATE YOU!
HELL, I DON'T EVEN WANT TO BE MAD
YOU. BUT WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO?

MY SHINE AND MY GLOW IS DULL,
FADED, AND PATTERED. I DON'T
WANT TO GET THAT POINT,
TO WHERE IT'S "F$%*& IT- IT
DON'T MATTER!"

I WANT TO BE THAT PERSON THAT
* I -AM-TO-BE. WITH THAT SPARKLE
IN MY EYES, MY SPIRIT AGLOW.
WITH ALL THE HAPPINESS,ENERGY,
AND LOVE TO SHOW.

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO SHOW
YOU. TO SHARE WITH YOU "THAT
THIS CAN REALLY BE!"
BUT YOUR EMOTIONAL BASHINGS AND
MENTAL BEATINGS & MORE,
ONLY LEAVES ME CRUSHED, BITTER,
AND TORN!

WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER
TO BE BE NICE TO EACH OTHER.
I THINK OF YOU "&" YOU THINK
OF ME, OR "TOGETHER 4-EVER"
WE WILL NEVER BE.-

I LOVE YOU, WITH HOPE, LOVE
AND UNDERSTANDING.... 'LOVE, ME.'
