Love
(June 2nd 2004,
Wednesday)
i learned early on
you never win
even if you think
you have
because its an on going game
love is a challenge
a loss, and a gain
you play
it for the pleasure
and quit it for the pain
it may cause your heart to break
your heart to fly
and fall
but no matter what
loves the best game of them all
you think youve got it figured out
your only half
way there
the feeling in your heart now
is something like despair
you want the good feelings to last
the bad ones to
refrain
from entering your heart and mind
over and over again
you long to find true love
something to be admired
but
even tho you try
you heart keeps ending up on fire
the pain rises to greet you
the joy it kneels down
away
from you as you fall
just before you hit the ground
you realize your problem
you decide to run away
from
the hurt and from the pain
run forever and a day
you face another challenge
getting over them
you
loved and lost one more time
it happeneds again and again
you try to curb the pain
your taste for love and
lust
you are determined to find it
your motto: find true love or bust
the pain is now a hollow
eating you alive
you
lay there being swallowed
trying not to cry
your mind tells you to stop
before it is to late
you
open your mouth to scream
but the silience stops the rage
its been two months
the pain is vanishing
finally
dispersing
leaving, going away
you desire to call your love
to return to you again
but
you decide best not
and say just in case
just in case the pain returns
to set your heart aflame
and
watch it as it burns
to ashes once again
you think youve got it down
you think you know the
truth
your wrong you know
its over, buried in the words
the words they speak to you
when you fall in love
the
words hidden below the earth
when you say i love you
i love you, i hate you
you know that its the truth
when
i say i love you
please forgive my words
i cry because i love you
because the pain is real
because
i need to show you
just exactly how i feel
im going to finish speaking now
in hopes you understand
they
way i feel inside for you
when i touch your hand...
