reality

 
sweet sorrow doesn't bother me
my thoughts, mine to keep
sadness, a comfort from the numb

hinders regret, with little affirmations
a broken heart, says you lived and loved
hurtful pride, let the ego die

I'm inside your your soul
your within mine
escapism, is thinking we will always be one

the reality, love is difficult
seducing the moment, is the best I can offer
with dedication to the man you want to be
bring out the woman you desire
and we will see eye to eye

beautiful need, solace in a hug
tenderly, touching one another
understanding the point of view of the other,
in times of conflict
doubt carries hurt feelings
true love lets them go

I don't believe in throw away people
everyone has a purpose, a time in our lives
wisdom to be gained, anger is sometimes a gift
we have to fight to live

memories of sanctity
moments of clarity, when we forgive
going on to love deeper
with a fresh perspective

placing hopes on the real
not the fantasy, of what coud be
