THE WAY TO LOVE

He loves her with much passion
A passion that will rise
But so much love will hurt her
It's hurting him likewise.

She asks: why ever in this world
Things have to be this way
And why cannot she be in love
Exactly in his way...?

Why this strange difference
Stays between them like a wall
And she can't learn his way hence
And he can't learn her own.

He watches her with hunger
He feels her touch and hurts
Possession leads to anger
And giving all's the cost!

Where will it end? Together
For evil and for good,
Will this love be for ever?
Or will it die just soon?

And who can say? - the answers
Are hidden somewhere out
Whatever are the chances
I won't be scared tonight.
