The Problems With Love

When love turns sour, your left without hope. When our hearts are broken, They aren't easily mended. Your heart will be torn and frayed. The ones you once loved will Humiliate you in the worst ways. They will fill you with agony and tears, But, before the agony, comes the anger. You feel betrayed and devastated. They will disable you of all defenses, Because that person was the one you trusted. You told them your secrets and heart's greatest desires. But, when you realize the ulterior motive, The reason they were in your life in the first place, You are ashamed of yourself for being naive. So, because you won't allow yourself to be hurt again, You know you'll never be able to be with them. But...You'll still regret all those stupid fights, And you'll still laugh at all the silly jokes. You'll remember the good times and the bad, And thank God for the time you had.
