Love's Second Chance

I told myself I would not go down this path again

But it appears I am once again my only friend

The one I loved has left me behind

And, once again, it feels like the light in me will never shine

I gave love a second chance, just to have it stab me once more

And I never had a chance with her, or her magnificent allure

I am so tired of living, so tired of love

So tired of wanting to join those up above

So tired of being left, so tired of fate

So tired of being consumed by hate I create

I can't give love another chance, how can I love what kills?

And always makes me turn to taking so many pills?

An overdose, rather a final rest

Perhaps then I can feel some loving caress.
