True Love Knows No Bounds

You are currency, simply put
You have buying power, but it's not always the same
You compete every day whether you know it or not
Your existence is a fiduciary game

You buy into relationships
You expend yourself
You make some feeble attempt at a savings account
But life usually calls upon you to exhaust your reserves
You are a series of charts and estimations and graphs
You are initial hope and the messy aftermath

He fell in love with you when your value was high
But what goes around comes around
And value is always depreciated by forces
Beyond your control
One day he'll wake knowing
He can't get as much from you anymore. 
Because no one waits in grocery lines with the forsaken

Systems regulate themselves
Until they don't.
Love is a gamble
The stakes are high
There's not a corner of this Earth
On which it's not found

And yes, my friends
It does know bounds.
