Why do we love when we only get hurt?
We try so hard to find "the one"
but it never works.

We open ourselves up to a love so true
but in the end it just disappears
and all we are left with is the pain...

The pain destroys us,
finding ways to destory not only us but those around us.
We have trouble rebuilding ourselves.

We look for ways to **** the pain....
but we know deep down that
the only cure is that one true love that we have lost.

The one love that doesnt judge
that doesnt envy or hurt.
The love that is eternal and everlasting.

The love that is forever gone....
gone and disappeared.

Once i was as unbreakable as a diamond
but now all i know is weakness.  
In the act of betrayal... no body wins,
especially if love is involved.

When you believe in beauty,
you often encounter true pain more often.
You may try to ignore the lies and move on,
or forgive like an angel
but it is almost impossible to fill yourself
with the passion you once knew.

Those whom you love
have shattered you once again.

So now,
what do you do?
Who do you turn to?
Who do you love?
This was inspired by a quote from one of my many favorite books, *Under the Never Sky*. The main character puts it best saying, "People can be cruelest to those they love."

My innocence is gone
I am alone...but not broken.

I was thrown into the darkest place imaginable
when you betrayed me.
At first I was empty...
but you leaving has given me a second chance at the happiness i deserve.

I am alive again
and I am stronger than before.

I don't have to pretend anymore
or be afraid of what you think.
I am better off without you,
though it took long enough for me to realize it

The dawn of my life is here,
and I am happy again.....

I finally have a choice.

Hiding within myself
the darkness too much to bear
the pain too much to survive

Living a giant lie
unable to stop the countless memories
from eating away at my soul

As truth blurs with lies
and past blurs with present
I begin to lose everything I once held dear
the truth
my memories
my soul

The darkness has overtaken me
I am finally lost in the lies

— The End —
