betrayal love, complicated mirth
love is sometimes a word too strong to say too early
but a feeling too beautiful to say too late
when will the cheating ever stop
when all your efforts come to naught
perhaps only when i leave
the sorrow starts to cleave
at my sorry heart
of which you were once a part
a part that i held so dear
that i almost lived in fear
fear of losing you
of how you really feel
i believed in love
my belief was not a curve
straight as an arrow
which i used to follow
i want to believe again
even if there's nothing to gain
the times we shared
when u really cared
its hard to leave behind
think i'm losing my mind
betrayal is hard to take
all it takes is one mistake
for the faith to wane
for the neverending rain
to pour in torrents such
that your eyes cant see much
what's in front of you
much less how you feel
i'm now at a loss
wondering what's the cost
if i stopped this facade
how deep would the cut, go
my side,
is it any wonder i'm tired
is it any wonder that i feel uptight
is it any wonder i don't know what's right
sometimes it's hard to know where i stand
maybe it's a puzzle i don't understand
sometimes i get the feeling that i'm stranded in the wrong time
where love is just a word in a children's rhyme
nothing left inside this bold cathedral
just the sad, lonely spires
how does one make it right
how do i to put up a brilliant fight
after the misery you have made
is it any wonder i'm afraid
is it any wonder i feel betrayed
when perhaps it is more than fate
to love is to risk not being loved in return
to hope is to risk pain
to try is to risk failure
but risk must be taken because
the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing
but should i really risk your feelings

have you ever been in love? it makes you so vulnerable. it opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. you build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life. you give them a piece of you. they didn't ask for it. they did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.
love takes hostages. it gets inside you. it eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. it hurts. not just in the imagination. not just in the mind. it's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.
I hate love.

toxic
hand in hand, heart to heart
how i wish we'll never be apart
love is a wonderful thing
that's not synonymous with a fling
life is simply a circus
with too many fools on the stage
there's greed, fear and indifference
as many hearts suffer from its rage
without love we become such fools
in a desert which has gone all dry
when the one we love ignores us
there's nothing to do but cry
the worst curse that one can endure
are those who just wish to take
when all we give is our own love
to find out we've made a mistake
of all the prizes life may bring
to be loved is by far the best
that's why so many search for it
for without love, what good is the rest?
i don't know if you're my poison or antidote
but i'll breathe you in anyway
i need your essence in my veins
to keep you from fading away
if love was just a word
if there was no meaning
what would happen to the world
if it lost all feeling
would there be music?
would there be God?
if love were just a word
would it be nothing but gawd?
what would the world be like?
what would happen if we no longer loved?
it will never happen.
