What if we're connected
to the ones we love the most
by an invisible cord
that extends from host to host?
The sensations of connection
produced directly
from this bond
Think about it
New love is hot
because the link
is newly smelted
and has not yet cooled
But as it has not set
it may easily split
Old love is steady
because the link has hardened
But when left unchecked
it becomes inflexible
Then, it may get in the way
and must be painfully removed
This link is why it hurt
when we were far apart
But once the link expanded
the pain did fade away
To keep its health
I prescribe a regimine
of heating
cooling
hammering
twisting
As long as it's attached
