Love, The Never-Ending Battle<br />

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the heart<br />

I believe love is a mystery<br />

It is but a mastered art<br />

Much has entertained us in love’s history<br />

Celebrities and people just like you and me<br />

All have been cast under the spell<br />

We see it on TV<br />

Only soon did they realize love is no fantasy,<br />

Love is hell<br />

A test put upon us by the gods<br />

Or so some seem to think<br />

Most have to fight the odds<br />

Love is all gone in a blink<br />

Of our blind eyes<br />

I would hope us all to think more wisely<br />

For this game, love is a battle,<br />

Love is nothing but trouble<br />

Love is here, love is gone, love is pain<br />

Love is all we have forgotten,<br />

Traveled far away in a bubble<br />

Love is over, love is past,<br />

Love is an undying chain<br />

Yet to be broken<br />

Soon to end<br />

And possibly I have outspoken<br />

Please forgive me, I am only trying to defend<br />

All those who were hurt by four simple words, we need to<br />

Talk<br />

This is a battle of hate and balk<br />

But sometimes when you meet the one<br />

All the pain, all the hurt, seems worth it,<br />

And with that I am done<br />

How can I tell you what I feel for you?<br />

When I think of you my feelings twist inside<br />

As if someone’s fist reached in and grabbed a few,<br />

and turned and turned them tight and tangled.<br />

I’ve tried<br />

Somehow to say,<br />

You’re the sun in my sky,<br />

The wind that takes me where I want to go,<br />

the sweet incense that makes me feel so high<br />

But it all sticks in my throat!<br />

It sounds too cute,<br />

Empty as a wrinkled paper bag.<br />

You won’t believe it! Better I stay mute<br />

than offer you expressions that make you gag.<br />

And yet I wish to tell you of my love,<br />

If only love its own locks would remove!<br />
