At a loss for love

Lie to me using common methods
Push out my loyalty
Stomp on my devotion

Turn me into a shadow
Unaccustomed to pain
Destruction, and failure

Nagging my heart
Spilling my blood
walking into the light

Falsely love me
Truly love you
Unfair transitions.

Walk out of my existence
Start a fire burning my words
Taking the arrow out of my ass

Turn off my inspiration, and take what I need most.
Remove the pen from my hand
I write for you no more.

Agreed

Yeah, love sucks pretty much......But as a famous musician once said "Pain without love, I can't get enough, cause I'd rather feel pain then nothing at all."

Powerful words. I like what you said `it's better to feel pain than nothing at all` Rosina xena465
