oh Lord I have troubles
lingering 'round,

my thoughts and heart steep
of the recent unbound.

I don't want to hurt her,
but she wants to feel pain.

not in the physical,
but rather the vain.

it's twisting my mind,
my eyes are near tears,

in past times I'd wipe them
with *****, **** & beers.

but these days I have duty,
obligation, and cause.

all things surpassing
my hiding flaws.

I shant dilute feelings
with chemicals or drugs,

but here now I sit,
alone; without hugs.

and it makes it so hard,
knowing what's next.

it's the first time I'll meet,
my recent new 'ex.'

Sick of it all,
sick of the games.
When will I find
the one with the name:
I'll call out forever,
and ever in time.
Only one, I will call mine.
Where has she gone?
Where will I find her?
The ink in my pen
is my reminder.
That true love is true,
true love is near.
As long as I love
and let go of the fear.
Deep, easy breaths:
be calm and reminded.
Love can't be rushed -
you find it, blinded.
