I'm very good at pretending to be happy
But somehow you know I'm sad
When no one else does

My heart is very broken inside me
But somehow you mended it
When no one else could

I'm easily tired of this world and its people
But somehow you make me smile
When no one else can

I'm very good at hide and seek
But somehow you found me
When no one else did

Love is the thing that can bring you back from your lowest of lows.
Unfortunately, the loss of it is often the thing that puts you at your lowest.
This was thought up after, again, telling a person that I had such intense feelings for them and realizing that, although they did have feelings for me, that they weren't nearly as intense or strong as my feelings. I'm not necessarily distraught or defeated by this information, I just feel like now I must find a new course to direct my energies towards.

The best part about falling in love
Is just when it begins,
And the best part about making love
Is just before it ends:
The ecstasy surrounds us, then
We sail away on tide and wind
To do the best parts
Over again
