An Agonizing Coherent Thought

 
 
Was love supposed to be this painful  
 
 
Were their tears forgotten,  my tears  
So useless to my love's closed ears  
In my heart agony sears  
You can't see it but we fit together like gears  
 
 
Will I always continue to stand so still  
As my love for you boils to my fill  
Standing with nothing left but my will  
So shattered, so sad until  
 
 
Must I watch as you hug another one  
Knowing I will lose the battle, see no sun  
The victory not mine to be won  
Before I could stop it, the love begun  
 
 
Do I have to feel so utterly lonely  
When you are not here, by me?  
Everyday we talk so nonchalantly  
In a maze, darkness is all I see  
 
 
I never want to lose this one so dear  
But I am afraid, taken over by my fear  
When I see you, up I cheer  
All because you are so near  
 
 
I stand down, watching you be happy  
Knowing you won't be happy with me  
My pain darker then a deep blue sea  
I'm broken when you're an absentee  
 
 
Your name on the butterflies, in my stomach and skin  
What burns the worst, scars my within  
This love for you has more madness then sin  
My adoration in the corner of my heart, in a bin  
 
 
Are the cries that escape my throat  
These feelings for you keep me afloat  
With words I often rewrote  
All the lines I said I quote  
 
 
You are a friend that I cherish so  
But this emotion is one you'll never know  
With fake smiles I put on a show  
Hidden the feelings that pile like snow  
 
 
You spread through me like an infection  
You will never know of our connection  
My deep rooted everlasting affection  
Because I am a coward, afraid of rejection  
 
 
Love isn't supposed to be this painful
