And...We're Back

The only foolproof way to avoid heartbreak is to never let anyone get close enough to touch your heart. You'll never get the wind smacked out of you, you'll never be let down and you'll never cry yourself to sleep. 

But I want to lose my breath, and be swept away, and weep tears of joy. I want to feel a love so intense it hurts. The kind that would kill me if it wasn't what I thought it was, but is exactly what I know it is. The trouble is, there's no way to tell the difference between the real thing and a counterfeit unless I am willing to take the risk and be free with my heart. 

So here I am. Again. A heartbroken record.
