It's You

Untameable emotion shoots through my veins
like a white hot flame
Twisting, contorting
In the name of your being
my eyes refuse to give in 
to the peace that night promises
the pain makes me restless
yet i can't forget
how i feel so worthless
so unloved it's untrue
do I not deserve hapiness for being with you?
Why is it that your soul insists
on not fitting with mine
it taunts and bruises 
the meaning unkind
I swallow my sadness as it dives deep inside of me
is our love not meant to be?
Simple decisions too fragile to be made
the truth lies present
yet the future disguised
why is it that i can't read your eyes?
