Boys
silly little things
odd, unreadable things
strange, twisted being
confusing, mind numbing
heart breaking
finger twisting
people
they have this unbelievably strong
ability to attract us
to appeal to everything we want
giving us hope for a bright
happy future
they say the right things
do the right things
they lure you out of your cage
your cave your fortress of safety
they make you let your guard down
just when you think you have found the one
when you think
you have discovered the reason
the one exception
the one person that means something
that shows you
they are not all the same
they betray you
hurt you
destroy you
it could be so easy for them
to let you go
cut the strings you held on too
with such force and passion
to kick you off that cliff he had lead you too
to leave you in the field of unknown obstacles and dangers
to take your heart
and never give it back
but what is so easy for them
leaves you,
leaves us with such a difficult task
of finding ourselves again
of getting over what we had lost
but where do we find that strength
that courage
that love
to get back and continue on the search
search of happiness
when you climb so high
and go so far to follow one thing.
when back at the beginning,
its hard to start over
why do they do what they do
and hurt us so much
i just want to know why
