Bleed For Love

Dark days... full of grays
Do we ever win?
Even in victory failure looms at the door...
 
Black skys...teary eyes
Do we ever heal?
Even moments of great passion end in despair
Hold joy close, but elusively it disappears  
always...
 
Can we ever meet happiness?
A stranger invited to our home we hope stays the evening.

Will we ever visit the house of contentment?
allowed respite from the cold within the bounds of security.

Is it my own pain and greed that drags me low,
or is it the hurt of others bringing me to slow
...and to grow old... Alone
 
 
Joy is measured by a moment... Or moments.
Sorrow is measured by those moment gone...
 
Every day brings night...
Even the bright sun fades to the solemn moon.

Born to die...?
 
Yet what is deaths purpose?
To free us of pain?  
To heal us of living?
Life sucks the life out of us...
yet love gives us perseverance to fight.
 
Who is the real enemy?
Do not fear death…
And fight for life,  
fight for life until you beat the love out of it
 
Bleed for love,
Sweat for dreams,
Cry for hope,
