Love is hard...

by Joshua   Sep 8, 2011


Love sometimes, is too hard to bare
Now you go back to a love not there
This sad, lonely, unwanted feeling inside
Has left you feeling always wanting to hide
In the shadow of some dark place
Closing your eyes all you see is one face
The face of someone you'll never get back
The feeling for them that'll never retract
You look back on all the memories you've shared
Because that's the only way to get back there
That one place buried deep down
It's so far down, tied up and bound
Feelings should never have to be put away
It makes you feel unwanted and astray
Alone, waking up with a hole in your chest
But nothing else can be done, is there nothing left
The sharp knife that slowly ran you through
Is now pulled out and there's nothing you can do
The only thing you can hold inside
Are the feelings that has been left behind
Loosing this, only few know about
Because most never get to feel love at this amount
Unsure of where theirs have gone
It's like they've stopped and moved on
All this happened so quick and fast
And now it's gone thrown away in the past
The past is sometimes oh so close
And it's also something that hurts the most
But it's also something you hold so dear
It could bring joy or hurt and develop tears
So many times you stop and think
It's like each memory ends with a blink
Like a movie on one of those old time reels
But not; because it brings back how you feel
Trying to drive forward without it switching gears
Where do you go from this place right here
You're trying to not think about what's now gone
But everywhere you go reminds you of memories so fond 
You just tried to go where a few years met
Only to find some unknown code has been set
They've taken away something so dear and sweet
Somewhere they've promised you'd always be able to meet
You've gave them more than anyone else
You've gave them more than you gave yourself
Not even trying to be sweet and kind
They seen more than others have in a lifetime
Making sure you were always there
Showed them how much you really cared
Now you're stuck feeling hurt and alone
Not knowing how from all the love you've shown
Some decisions you've made may not have been smart
So now not thinking clearly has grown you apart
You gave a lot, going on a whim
But all you wanted was to be with them
Loosing it all; for them was worth it
You'd give it all up, and that's hard to admit
Willing to do what ever it takes
That's even stopping to think about what's at stake
If you were able to go back to a memory so close to reach
It'd be the one where you're at the Daytona beach
Maybe to restart what started with love
To be with someone you've only dreamed of
