Love Is a Battlefield

A thought born from rage, A decision made in haste. An action performed out of anger As a precious heart’s laid to waste Trembling lips blow out smoke From the fatal shot of words spoken, As the sanctity of ones promise Is left shattered and broken A soul stained with blood From that murderous shot, As the words enter the heart Painful and red hot A grieving face wet with tears And the others eyes filled with shame, As misguided emotions Were most likely to blame Jealousy, mistrust, Insecurity and greed From their tight grip Some can never be freed This emotional war we fight Is brutal and tough, But as hard as some fight It is never enough So what’s left are the victims Of this senseless war, Leaving the survivors bloodied and broken And empty to the core Words and emotions Are powerful weapons and tools, So make sure you don’t leave them in the hands of loves fools
