Death spiral


2 eagles attached by foot. My love is exactly like that yk.. Relationship spinning until one fall Testing the strength to see if one overcomes. Testing the trust to see if one breaks Endurance until we mate. Others see it as toxic, I see it as fate. Seeing if our love is strong enough for the next tape. Cause if 2 eagles can decide their future off that. I know what we got has what it takes.
