To

To Loving you is hard It turns happiness into sadness Joy into anguish Hope into despair It’s a choice I’ve taken To break my won heart To see and feel the mold As it captures my spirit To try is to fail To know is uncertainty To partake is a taste To resist is futile Loving you is torture It turns feelings into numbness Care into apathy Freedom into struggle It’s a path I’ve chosen To forget who I am To acknowledge the bindings As it shadows my nature To forget is waste To retreat is slim To stay is abandonment To rest is death Loving you is real It turns thoughts into ideas Highs into lows Courage into inhibitions It’s a decision I’ve made To suffer the consequences To sharpen the saw As it scars my existence To endure is to dream To receive is to doubt To join is the end To believe is defeat
