&quot;To me, Fearless is not the absense of fear. It&#039;s not being completely unafraid. To me, Fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, Fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Taylor Swift

I could hear the seconds ticking by,
Our time together coming to an end,
Quicker than either of us wants it to.

Time.
Time.
Time.

They say time is the only remedy for a break-up.
They say time is what heals the soul.
They say time is the only thing you need to heal the pain.

But what if time is what is killing you?
What if it's the time that we're apart that's killing me?
What if it's the time that's hurting me, tearing me apart?

Everyone says time heals the wound, but sometimes I think time is what causes the wound.
