Love does not die of just a single blow,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuAdpxfa8v
Its life flows out quite slowly over years,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv99aIkZ4n
One drop follows another as love flows,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE9kZVqzyR
From thousands of unfatal cuts and tears.72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfwSjSOqkX
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJ14mYk7Ne
A thousand little stings from tongue or eye,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLgnWYi9qB
A thousand unkind words from me and you,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsEa1ySYVu
A thousand "I told you so’s" piled on high,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFa4ulHaQH
A thousand battles lost, refought anew.72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvCUBVCO7s
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAzcGYwwC4
Each wound a scab that grows harder with time,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCoR9T2Kgb
Covering festering hurts that won't heal,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ223kk8tsBb
An unwise word morphs to betrayal sublime,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIyBoOZpeN
Suppurating reminders all too real.72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVdNZcc5Ln
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9ked885LX
Simple kindness is lost from lack of use,72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjqu4h2UDM
And what remains just a facade in truth.72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaqihHC1c1
