Love Me Or Loose Me
Love has never changed.
Being in love has stayed the same.
However my flaws and our problems,
Has pushed your heart away.
I've tried to make it complete.
Put in effort to make it work.
Instead you flaunt my faults,
And pushed me face foward into the dirt.
Moonlight over seas.
I think of the old us.
The two that were were wrapped up together,
By true friendship minus lust.
I sit and think of everything.
I prayed that we would get it back.
But I guess our bond was not strong enough,
And respect for each other we both lacked.
Over the course of the last year.
As our problems started to persist.
There were less hugs and less smiles.
And more arguments we could not resist.
But once did I ever,
Scream I did not love you anymore.?
I knew that it would be trouble,
Once you were on the other side of the door.
Lies and strong words.
Has brought us both to hate.
But we being the lovers,
Control our own fate.
I've cried too many times.
Now I'm left with limited tears.
I've decided to transform them,
And save them for our happier years.
If we are over,
We're over.
Your love is not there.
But just because I'm not stressing,
Does not mean I don't care.
The end of us means love,
Has finally taken its trial.
But I am not one to say...
...I am not in love with you...
Because then I will be in denial.
It takes two to make it work.
We failed because there is no effort.
No trust.
Leave two hearts broken on the floor,
Walk away if you must.
I've stuck around for so long.
Because I still see the same potential.
You may have changed from being RAMAR,
But you still live up to the same credentials.
Maybe I see more in you.
Than what I may see in myself.
Maybe I'm not playing the cards right,
That our Father has dealt.
You have an important decision to make.
My mind has been made up all of this time.
Are hands may not be holding on,
But your heart is still holding onto mine.
