La Douleur Exquise
Trinity Jones
Jan 2015
Have you ever met someone
and in the same instant
that your eyes glazed over with the sight of perfection
and your heart melts with desire
you just know it never can and never will be true
La douleur exquise, la douleur exquise.
I unconsciously chose to ignore the idea of impossible
but I need reality to crush that
Otherwise,
I'll be stuck in paradise for one day too many
In the meantime
You seem to be the only one I would ever want
And the only one I can never have
and in the same instant
that your eyes glazed over with the sight of perfection
and your heart melts with desire
you just know it never can and never will be true
La douleur exquise, la douleur exquise.
I unconsciously chose to ignore the idea of impossible
but I need reality to crush that
Otherwise,
I'll be stuck in paradise for one day too many
In the meantime
You seem to be the only one I would ever want
And the only one I can never have

Inherent disregard to my own scars
drain this chalice of my inebriated blood
akin to the taste of cyanide, cascading down your tongue
a sacrilegious demon may not be evil
my church is but of rotting wood and bone
my fragile prayers are not enough to hear
no, not enough to hear such a far away thought
reverberating in my head the battle rages
never ending echo, forever, la douleur exquise
drain this chalice of my inebriated blood

a sacrilegious demon may not be evil
my church is but of rotting wood and bone
my fragile prayers are not enough to hear
no, not enough to hear such a far away thought
reverberating in my head the battle rages
never ending echo, forever, la douleur exquise
Inspired by la douleur exquise a term that defines one who craves the affection of one who is unattainable. This is how I feel or would feel in said situation. I can't say if it's me. Thanks Lee.

When I first saw you
Your eyes were dark but so inviting
I can’t stop staring at them
everything you do, for me, is perfect
Every time our eyes meet
It feels like you’re looking into my soul
I’m melting inside and whenever i'm with you
it seems time is ticking slowly
Perhaps I know some of your flaws,
I accepted it, I will accept it even if
your flaws are worst because
I love you
You are my world
I want you, I need you, but,
I thought I can be with you
Why can’t I have you?
All I can see is you, all I know is you.
I love you, as if
There is no any other person exist.
Why does it hurt me so?
Ha! Being together is like a pie in the sky…
Can’t we just be together??
La douleur exquise
Such a painful feeling kills me so much.
No matter what I do
I... I can never have your heart.
