Chapter VI. Ruby
 
Fall From Grace
 
A million yesterdays ago
With the passionate bravado
Of an inexperienced heart
I made this vow:
 
To be always secure
To give nothing away
To stand proud alone
To never love too much.
 
I would never apologize.
I would never beg.
And nobody would ever have
that much control over me.
 
*I* would say goodbye.
*I* would leave.
*I* would break the hearts.
No man would ever make me cry.
 
How the mighty have fallen.
 
Now I know.
Love kills.
It rips you apart.
It leaves nothing untouched.
It allows no room for pride.
It possesses completely.
It teaches mercilessly.
And unless you are that strong,
it can leave you with
nothing but ashes.
 
The one thing you are left with
Is the bittersweet truth
That his happiness matters
more than your own.
 
But even so,
I never dreamt
That love could ever hurt
this much.
 
Truly,
ONLY love
Can break your heart.
