Its So Hard To Love You

by Empress Jai   Sep 9, 2007


I could love you but my heart won't let me,
I could hold you close but my arms hang at my sides...
I live with a thousand of masks over the real me.
That I struggle and fight so hard to hide.

Can't be the girl I once was,
She died sometime a few years back.
No longer the girl capable of love.
So I stand here in my tower, in my cage,
As you beg me to let you in just a little,
one inch,
one crack.

But I can't!
When Its so easy to love you,
Its so damn heard at the same time!
I want to run in terror,
in fear
But yet I yearn to be the one you claim as your love
and to claim you as mine.

I can see you waiting for me at the end of the aisle,
as I make that trip to you to seal our lives together with a kiss,
a few words and a smile.
But yet I want to hitch up my dress and run.
Clearing my face of my veil,
Hating the fact that in my heart I love you still.

Damn it! Why? Why me?
Why do I still hold the flame of love in my heart?
Why do I know deep in my soul that my love for you could never end?
Especially since in this game we live to hit the play button only to stop and then again restart?

I don't wanna love you
Because I've been hurt so bad.
My hearts broken and my soul is shattered
No longer am I the love sick girl you could have had...

Damn I can’t love you but I know that I must.
I have to let down my gates and fire my guard.
I have to let you in and give you my trust,
I have to love you so says my heart
Even if my mind tells me its gonna be so damn hard!
