My Love Does Not Listen
How can I love someone so much
When he puts such a strain on my heart
I just want the very best for every part of him
So he can see his worth as much as I do
He let's things that ravish him, control his mind
Even when I try my best to steer him another direction
I wish he understood the break of my heart
When he talks to me in a way that is just..not him
Because I know its him, somewhere there
Deep past the destructive behavior he thinks he needs to act upon
My love doesn't know that it's not those things that will help him
He isnt aware that those will only destroy him more
And he wont let me in... he wont let me help
How am I suppose to teach him, if he is not there to listen?
