act right

Conversations about love sometimes sound simpler than simple: if you want to be together, be together; if you don't want to, don't bother. But instead of honesty, a circus begins with ambitions, unspoken words and the eternal ‘you understand’.

Here, everything boils down to simple arithmetic: if you don't love someone, you don't betray them; if you hurt them, you apologise. And if the ‘I can do anything’ attitude starts to creep in, then the answer is already known. The rhythm beats right in your chest, like a reminder: respect is not a performance, it is the minimum without which no rings or declarations are worth even a line in a song.
