Once , the eyes asked the lashes,
"Will you truly protect me?"
And the lashes replied,
"Yes, my dear. I will, my love."
"If your love is true then, can you stop the tears from falling?" the eyes asked innocently.

For this question, the lips answered,
"Love does not only mean shielding someone. Sometimes, it also means letting go."
Yet the lips never knew that the tongue was trapped beneath them.
They believed they were protecting it carefully,
never realizing that their protection had become its prison.
