Love Dont Live Here

LOVE What is this four letter word that I neither know nor have heard Why try when any miniscule piece of happiness I tried to reach is pried from my fingers leaving deadly marks making me forget how it even felt To have someone care about me Sometimes I wish I was free from this body free from this life sometimes I fear I won't survive this strife The devil is always watching me as if I did something wrong why is he so attracted to me? Find someone else to drill a hole into I am one strong person to stay a float when life constantly tosses me under and supplies no boat I feel like sinking under and never returning Cause these burns I endure hurt me everyday There's always tears present. Always hurt present. Never PEACE. Never HAPPY. Never LOVE. What does that mean? Am I destined to sink. Cause LOVE don't live here... never did.
