I've decided to let go
So that's what I'm going to do
These insatiable holes in our hearts
Are pains that I'll never get used to

I lust for what you want
You love what I need
It's been going on for so long
The thin lines are beginning to bleed

No one, not even you
Knows how I feel when I'm alone
No fib, all truth
For something to belong to, I've never fully known

A walking oxymoron
I need you, but I won't show
You're not a mind-reader
But I thought you should know

Love ain't so easy
At least that's what I think
Curse my charming words
Painting pictures while I speak

They all move on anyway
Even if I push them, or on their own
I can't say that I am used to it
But I have grown numb

So I've decided to let go
And that's what I'm going to do
This insatiable hole in my heart
Is a pain I'll never get used to.

It's a pain everyone knows, though. The only resolution is to let another heart in.

Thank you for your feedback. Everyone tells me the same. I guess I should listen :)

Listen, I've been there. I've lived that pain for longer than I care to remember. I let the right heart into my own and have had 23 years of love, joy, devotion and unassailable loyalty.

Awww, that gives me so much hope! I'm working towards it everyday. By you saying these words to me, I know it's confirmation! Thank you again.
