A Beautiful Battle

A beautiful battle

Of love and pain

Where nothing is hidden

Where it’s never just a game.

The blood flows

The tears shed

But at least it’s the truth

At least we’re not misled.

At least we’re holding on.

We won’t back down.

You showed me you loved me

With kisses as soft as goose down.

Snow falls to the ground

We turn to face the crowds,

With hands, gripping together

With flowing, ominous clouds

With our luck

Seemingly against us both

We held on, stayed strong

We held on to our oath.

A beautiful battle

Of love and pain

Where hearts are broken in two

Where it’s never just a game.

People come between us

Or try to, at least.

But still we hold on

And still our love increased.

A battle of hearts

A battle of tears

A battle of love

A battle of fears

A battle for you

A battle for me

A battle for everyone

A battle for your heart’s key

A beautiful battle

Of love and pain

Where we all try to win

When we just lose in vain.

[Kara Emily Krantz]

gosh, this poem hit me where it hurts. i'm feeling a lot of these feelings lately.... like i'm battling against the world, just to try and remain true to myself an my love.

i could just be stupid. i'm so afraid that i'm just being stupid. and letting myself get abused.

but my instincts tell me that is not true. my instincts believe in our love.

"The blood flows

The tears shed

But at least it's the truth"

LOVE THAT.

hugs
