Loves Strife
Emotions of love is what we yearn
Striving and clinging to the most absurd
Looking about in haze held fast
Believing in love will save us from doubt
The touch of a hand
The gaze of an eye
Will make us feel more alive
Until the dark creeps past that mark
Then we see and hear what may not really be there
The pain wells up, envelopes us whole
Emotions of hate take full control
Feelings of loss, pain of the heart
Only regret is whats left
Behind in a void, where love once thrived
Now only chaos and doubt reside
Leaving that yearning for love feeling strong
Wishing and hoping to find it before long
But as time passes, with no love in life
The bitterness and hate grow more into sight
Fading love to memory
Giving hate full might
