Love is compared to a rainbow
Beautiful
Colourful
Having no beginning or an end
But our love can also be compared to a rainbow
Beautiful to the mere man
Having no beginning or an end
For it is non existent.
I remember her words
The ones that once pulled strings in my heart
The ones that once coersed through me
Your love was a paradox of everything I stood for
Only you can destroy the hatred I feel
Only you could destroy me
And just like gold I was left to ruin until your touch set up a fire in me
The fire that made me who I am.
I hate that I hate you
And I can't change that
It hurts that I miss you
But it hurts more to admit that I love you.
I have always wondered
Why people are so eager to love
No matter how much it hurts
Even when falling always leads to a crash
Yet they subject themselves to such a fall
Hard enough to cause us to shatter
Even when they know it may not last
They claim to be love-struck
But I guess that's the problem
You ignore all the red flags
Maybe it is true
Love is blind.
You were my drug
A drug I was addicted to
A drug I couldn't get rid of
That made it bad
Didn't it?
Yet I clung to it for dear life.
I was once a flower
But every time I fell deeper in love with you
The more petals we're stolen from me
Until I was fully revealed
And I couldn't hide the feelings anymore.
My heart was isolated
Darkness creeped in with every rare heartbeat it made
I needed something to feel up that space
But every solid thing in my life was ephemeral
The emptiness I felt was too great to be fixed
It was almost hopeless
Until you came.
A butterfly
As beautiful as it is
Yet rare to some people
As much as you love and want it
It's not all the time you get it
And when you do
You can't keep it locked up in your palms
You can't keep him locked up in your heart.
The way the sun kissed his skin
The way he always knew what was wrong
The way he calmed me
Or the way he got to my heart
It scared me
He had the power to cause havoc in my heart
Chaos within me
I was scared to let him in.
As I lay awake
Thinking 'bout you, thinking her I know
It's no mistake, that I'm feeling like this
I wonder if and how you'd feel,
Knowing something amiss
You wouldn't know what to make of it
I don't know
If the sight of you makes me bitter
If what I'd say, would even matter
Or if want it to
It doesn't hurt, to feel for you
It doesn't hurt, knowing that deep down I might not want this
It doesn't feel like I'm drowning
With my bleeding heart
Open for you
The solace I find in solitude
Can only be beaten by
The salvation I find in you
I don't think I remember
When you became my home
From my escape...
