Evermore

I am doomed to a life of empty love.

 

Why do I always fall for you?

Why am I so drawn?

I put so much trust into you,

and yet I'm always wrong.

I hope that you'll be different,

more loving than the last,

I pray to god that you're the one,

but soon you're nothing but the past.

Why am I so Conveyed by you?

You do nothing but injure my pride.

though I stay strong in your presence,

I'm slowly dying on the inside.

As I lie in bed another long,

lonley, restless night.

I realize how wrong you are,

but yet you are so right.

And once you're gone,

the heartbreak doesn't end,

another soon will take your place,

and the pain begins again.

When seeking love their own,

Others come for my assistance,

And though I am more than happy,

 My heart shows a strong persistince.

Finding happiness for others,

To me is not a chore,

and yet I must suffer myself,

For now and evermore.

Every man I hope to hold,

is always just a lie,

for endless days I lie there,

just wishing I would cry.

But no tears have come,

and never will they pour,

My eyes shall remain dry,

for now and evermore.

I know that if this continues,

though I'll never be alone,

my heart will shatter into nothing,

leaving behind nothing but a stone.

Still hurting my feelings. A beautiful reflection of how I'm a horrible friend... But beautiful. I love it despite the burn.

Love can leave us empty and alone. But we must get up after time smarter and wiser. Love is precious gift and need to be careful who we share it with. A powerful and sad poem.
