Love, the Battlefield.

Fighting a losing battle
Pushing against the wind.
Mama always told me
T'will be worth it in the end.

Pressure building strong
and more words cutting deep.
Trying to prove the wrong
on the reasoning that be.

Lights fading, darkness falling
Words spoken as a must,
Problems jumping from behind
that were swept along with dust.

Approaching from a turn-style
keeping both feet standing strong 
No doubt in my mind at all
That this had gone on far too long!

Reasoning aint easy
Parting ways just breaking hearts
Nothing can be justified
So I guess the end did start.

Love ending friendship breaking 
but who was all to blame
was it you who never loved at all 
but loved love as a game?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
