For contest

You are the star of my mahogany heart For you gave me the blues the biggest scar Everything I let go of to win your trust Was my mistake for you take love for lust I am to blame for ignoring the signs Thinking it was a growth of some kind That you would even let go of your past And become new in love a first a last I decided to be your friend first Because I wanted to make this work This idea of you began in my mind To love you a vampire a bloody valentine Your love is a gift to those you can’t have It’s like you live for what you can’t grab Mistakes were made when I said I care And made you afraid I’d always be there My bloody valentine I had no clue That you’d live your dream free and true That I’d be the thing you wanted to lose Draining my blood for the idea of you.

Deep. While love may cause pain, it also heals its pain. Don't be put down, but be uplifted, knowing true love, a love supreme, is coming. Know that this true love, a love supreme, is love in the onderful oneness of the onement of two hearts. One. Peace and Love.
