Do I fear love? Yes, in the same way I fear the ocean. I only cross its depths when I'm equipped. I respect love as it were the sea. Both have their own power: their own way. I am obliged to bend to their will, or become another casualty who has mistakenly thought themselves smart enough to tame them. I stand in awe of love.
I will only try and navigate its vast and wonderful depths with someone who is in awe of love too.
Michael Xavier
