Ooh How Cruel…. Poem by Elizabeth Jacqueline Mpanga

Ooh How Cruel….



It hurts me so much to love again
I am scared that am falling in love
Love has not been so kind to me
One can understand my reservation

I have tried so hard to turn my back on love
Each time I remember love, my heart breaks
I remember all the pain I have had to endure
Thinking that love would be kind to me

But love never did soften towards me
Ooh how cruel you are,
You steal my heart and just cast it away
Love assaulted my soul

Now I feel myself falling again
And it hurts more than a broken heart because I know,
That no matter how hard I try to guard my heart
Love will rip it out of me and open it up to more pain

How painful such a wonderful thing can be
I am helpless and weary
My heart bleeds from all the wounds inflicted by love
My soul has been pierced by loves spears

Ooh … love how cruel you are
Spare my heart this time around
Just look away from me
Do not hold me down
Oooh love how cruel you are……
