Love Hurts... Poem by Raimi Babatunde

Just that you know
I wrote a you a special song
Wait! Hold up! Not what you think
It wasn't easy my Dearest
But I prayed for the grace
The grace of goodbye

I am finally over you
For the emotional blackmails
Assaults in different shades
I finally got the balls
I heard all you said about me
I forgive you already

In you I saw tomorrow
A tomorrow that now will never come
Don't worry about me
I will cry for a while
But I'll be strong
You just became history
A story of once upon a time

Who says men are men
Men have emotions too
Truth is, we tear too
We just do it differently
Behind those smiles
Lays buckets of water
Only legends can identify with this

I tried alcohol and cigarettes
But hangover got the lot of me
The problem never left
I tried painting and singing
But I could only hear myself
All these meant nothing
To what loosing you meant to me

Why do we hurt the ones we love most?
I've been acting like a jerk
But this tragedy will pass
And my sun will rise again
Because I am an incurable optimist
I know I will fall again

When you stopped calling daily
When you stopped dropping by
And cut off emotional support
Like algebraic permutations
I knew you were done like done
But life abhores vacuum
An Angel will fill that void

A Lanister always keeps his words
I promise you I will rise again
But just that you know
The music doesn't sound the same
The walk now seem lonely
For all its worth
The food has become tastelessly tasteless

If you have ever been dumped
By the one you truly love
I've got bottles of beer
With Kenny G at the background
Please gather here my friends
Let's cry together
Love hurts...
