our love
(this is a bit rhymy and sappy but , it is exactly what our love felt like , mine and his. )
*******************************************************
***Our Love****
our love is like a battle that we can never win,
it runs pure like my tears ; but at times it drips with sin
our loves a contradiction that tears my heart in half ;
I'm laughing while I'm crying and I'm crying as I laugh
this love could be so simple , but we chose to make it hard
the things that we don't understand we are so quick to discard
your love is like a blade that is held up to my flesh
I tremble when beaneath it but then the pain and pleasure mesh
our love is like confusion; at times it seems surreal
but then it seems the only thing that's left that I can feel
our loves an expectation , I'm trying to live up
but if my bottles empty then I can't fill up your cup.
our love envelops me and then it clouds my mind ,
our loves the only thing I see , our love it makes us blind.
