Myth Or a Mystery

Is this a dream or a nightmare?
You push, me away, make my heart ache.
How much more, do you think I can take?

Is this the way it has to be?
Being hurt more than happy?
Is love a myth or a mystery?
I cry myself to sleep at night.
I dream about a love that is pure...
Only to awaken feeling aneasy, scared & unsure.

Is this the way it has to be?
Being cursed again or being lonely & free?
Is love a myth or a mystery?

You're a unicorn who turns into a monster.
Sometimes, I think that I'm going mad.
Love should make me happy, not sad.

Is this the way it has to be?
Are you my lover or my enemy?
Is love a myth or a mystery?

"You're a unicorn who turns into a monster," really brought this poem home to me for it is exactly what happens sometimes and it is sad.
