Why Do I Choose The Deeper Side

Why do I choose the deeper side
Why do I choose the one with more
Tears
Why do I pick the one I haven't
Known for over a year
Why do I love what I haven't
Known for a month
Why do I choose what I can't
Touch
Why do I choose what I can
Only read
Why do I feel this strong love and
Need
Because what I have chosen
Is creative
Is sweet
Is understanding
Is broken
All of these and more are said
Without a word to be spoken
Love is what I feel
Love is what I need
But why do choose the love that
Makes my heart bleed
Because he doesn't mean to hurt
He only means to heal
He isn't a thief although my
Heart he did steal
I've thought of a perfect person
I've thought of him day and night
And so far I've found this person
To my delight
And for this one lover
I am prepared to fight
If my love is questioned
I'll try to answer well
But whether it will last
Only time can tell
Sometimes I feel excitement
Sometimes I feel a burn
Sometimes I feel I'm broken
Even more than before
But my heart he hasn't torn
My love may be a little worn
But when your heart has felt what
Mine has
The feeling isn't always ignored
It may have felt pain from long ago
Sometimes that pain is present
Sometimes new pain has settled
In
But my love right now will not end
I don't wanna hurt
I don't wanna harm
But my love for this one
I can not disarm
Only time can do that
Along with some bigger problems
But I'll fight until the end of love
To keep this love unharmed
I feel like I've been sleeping
And this guy was my alarm
He woke up my insides and made
Me realize what I've done
I tried to love what wasn't there
He made me realize that
I prefer to love what I already love
I prefer to love who has it
The things I looked for in a guy
This guy made me realize that
He had the most important ones
He had the ones I needed
I forgot about what I wanted to get
And now that he's reminded me
I'll never forget....
