Born to love, born to bleed

Believe me, I would give you the world,
if only I could carry mine.

Want to show love,
but my hands have been bleeding for a too long time. 

To lie, I had to wear a disguise
until it was bleeding too.

My heart has never stopped aching,
not even because of you.

I promise you will receive the love you deserve one day,
maybe from another soul,
or maybe mine when all the pain goes away.
