I took a breadth,
making sure I could.
I thought it was supposed to be my breath.
Instead, when I saw you, you stole my heart beat.
Without a beat my heart became a contradiction.
It once gave life, now it took it away.
When the beat escaped through my pumping veins,
I lost the ability to dream. I lost the ability to believe.
“He who giveth can also taketh away”
I gave my heart. It had only been a look.
A look was all it took.
I had to take a breadth
just to make sure I could.
When I broke our gaze, I realized you’d gotten away.
Arbitrary Fame is based on my personal concept of definition. Definition is innate. It is a silhouette on the horizon. Definition comes in many different ways. Some are personal and only we, ourselves, understand them. Other forms of definition are dependant on our interactions and relationships with the people around us. I am a brother, a son, a friend, and a writer. These are my writings. This is me.
