Broken Love

tears are burning, my heart is breaking
sadness shows all, it knows no bounds.
mindless fury, ignites in your hand
it scares the soul, it scars the mind.
fear love pain and grief
all mixed up within.
my love tries to override
yet the pain is all consuming.
fear and grief come hand in hand
stripping away all of my courage.
how to take the the love back
and throw away the pain.
how to take the fear and grief
replace them with happiness.
its said time heals all wounds
yet love heals them faster.
i love with all my heart
i hurt with all my soul.
i'm afraid the hurt wont go
scared the love wont come back

I hope new Love will heal the deep wounds caused by old love or at least ease the pain
