Some old burning flame

In the realm of Shakespearean love, where passion’s flames burn brighter than the sun, spare me not your tales of understanding, for the abyss of my suffering plumbs depths that your words cannot grasp. Within your breast, a heart adorns itself in disguise, masking the chasm where a soul should reside. But deep within, you must acknowledge that I bear no desire to traverse the barren path of your emptiness.

In this world, empathy takes on the guise of a mere charade, a masquerade obscuring an abyss I dare not venture into. I shall not be ensnared within the shadowy confines of your existence, for I have savored the exquisite richness of authentic emotions. Your heart, a hallow chamber devoid of tender grace, pales in comparison to the intricate tapestry woven by genuine feeling. Yet, you persist in the pretense of understanding, ensnaring me within your deceptive embrace.

I chart my own course, disregarding the hollow summons of your heart, for I refuse to let the barren void engulf my essence. Amid the realm of emotions, where I’ve plumbed profound depths, your vacant existence holds no allure. I traverse the labyrinth of feelings, dancing to the harmonious cadence of my own heart, cherishing authenticity over the mask you don.

Beyond the hollow façade you wear, I’ve discovered a world where sincerity reigns supreme, where emotions flow deep and unbridled. It’s a realm where suffering is not a mere act but a crucible that tempers the spirit. Despite your claims of comprehension, your understanding remains a fragile imitation, a distant echo of the profound emotions that weave the tapestry of my life.

And thus, I journey onward, leaving your hollow echo behind, embracing the unadulterated symphony of emotions that defines me. In the crucible of my suffering, I’ve unearthed strength; in the depths of my despair, I’ve found resilience; and within the richness of my emotions, I’ve discovered the essence of my very being. This, my dear, is the authentic journey of Shakespearean love, where threads of passion, pain, and an unyielding pursuit of truth weave a tapestry that enthralls the soul.
