Tell Me

Rating: 5.0


Love love love please tell me how
you operate
Tell me how you come and be a
light in the midst of a dark cloud
how you manage to be the reason why someone cannot stop smiling.

Once again my emotional pal, tell me how you seem to be the reason behind the existence of so-called players, those who have had their hearts stained on the quest to finding eternal happiness.
Or so they say and so we think,

Tell me how in a space of a second someone can be swept off their feet and be left wondering why a love like that was always like a distant memory.
Tell me how pain is forever stacked in our hearts at the encounter of a counterfeit version of you.

You leave me in awe when you fail to stand up for yourself and clarify who you really are
The world is divided, you are defined in so many different ways and your existence is debatable.
Yet you choose to maintain silence

To those who have found you, they don't seem to want to lose you
And to those who haven't, well some long for you yet some are in denial and because of being phobia stricken, failure to commit leads them to dismiss your existence.
Tell me.
