    <content type="html">&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;I choose to still believe despite the struggles that accumulate from the distractions of nonsensical axioms that exist in unseen ranges.  I live even though the chords are torn.  I'm thin as paper and forgotten even though I remember it so clearly.  Swiftly I hope the coldness flees.  I can't feel my fingertips and I organize the pain into schemes that only my mind can see.  You can't add me up but I want more than the forged life you perceive.  The actions mumble profligate motives which create my moments of extreme aversions.   I open my eyes just as the light beams blind my indifference and asphyxiate the last focus before fate takes over.&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;I need some conceptual beauty in my life.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Running into you, I coerce the excuses and limit myself with seemingly dubious margins.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I have no idea if the best is yet to come.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I could extend my fondness past abnormal affection but you grin from the inside and it comes out swaggering.&amp;nbsp; You show me the same curiosity as to so many others.&amp;nbsp; Your touch is perfect as it is perplexing.&amp;nbsp; It clashes with your demeanor.&amp;nbsp; I rebound from swallowing years of extreme complexities.&amp;nbsp; You simplify my contemplation into a one-dimensional need.&amp;nbsp; There never were prior commitments, only forged impressions conceived by unusual and mistaken circumstances.&amp;nbsp; Your departure was always expected but running into you is a continuous surprise.&amp;nbsp; I double up in the inside.&amp;nbsp; I must always maintain my composure around you.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;rsquo;ve played the game before and this time I elude the capture of what&amp;rsquo;s left of my heart.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The train sweeps me away as I clearly see you look back as I go.&amp;nbsp; This is easier than falling.&amp;nbsp; This is accepting on a complete level before it becomes too late.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

There are still sad things we will never know.&amp;nbsp; We are corresponding obstacles and our negativity drops like rain.&amp;nbsp; Circumstances salvaged all the love from me but you established dreams again.&amp;nbsp; Bringing me out of shadows we tried so hard to understand our misunderstandings.&lt;/span&gt;</content>
