Love is a tempting emotion in which many people seek
It provides that warm fuzzy feeling
and the care and attention of another
A desire so natural among us
Now here I am staring love in the face,
Again and again we meet
only to be met with disappointment once more
The undesirable feeling of heartbreak
familiar to many
But now my heart has lifted
I’ve found you, so close yet so far apart
but distance doesn’t matter
as long as I know you’re waiting on the other side
Now as I try and get to know you
a realization struck me
I get more and more attached
and I realize that I love you
I need you..
My existence is possible because you are alive
I know I would give my whole life and soul for you
but secrets haunt me everywhere
the shadows of my past trailing my footsteps
and I am too much of a coward to reveal them
I am afraid to face them so I run away
only to be reminded that
every step I take, every mistake I make
is getting me farther and father away from you
and I feel my heart sinking
my love dying and my whole world
falling apart
I don’t want to lose you
I cannot lose you
you mean everything to me
you are the best of ‘em all
you are a lover, forever in my heart
you are soul mate, the other half of me
my emotion connected with yours and love reserved for you
But there is doubt deep inside me
I doubt I am the girl you want
I doubt that I am the girl that can give you what you need
and this possibility kills me
my heart and head at war
my head supplying the logic
my heart supplying the emotions
but I am confused, my heart split
it’s because of you that I am who I am
I am thankful for that
but I know there are others who could provide you
to give you the love and needs
as much as it hurts me to say this,
if there is a possibility of happiness
far greater than the one I am giving
I want you to take it and grasp it in your palm
the possibility of better
I care only for you and only you
and I want whatever is best
good things must come to an end right?
“if you love them, let them go”
I am willing to give you up
for your own good, I want happiness for you
but whatever your choice
I will always love you and I will never stop
