To love and be loved We all crave the same fiery temptation To feel and to be numb We contrast the beauty of love To be broken and to be rebuilt We have all seen an illusion of love To smile and to cry We fear love because sometimes love hurts To drown and to float We sink in despair, waiting to be rescued To be confident and to be insecure We weren’t born the same Most of us hate ourselves Wishing to be remade Or maybe wishing to never exist at all To be heard and to be ignored We hold everything inside because everyone on the outside is too busy to listen To be untruthful or to be truthful? Truthfully. . We are blinded by our fears So far deep in our tears We run from love because we never been chased by love We accept less because we think that’s all we deserve We reject love because we are tired of getting hurt We feel like we are ugly because he or she is more appealing We camouflage ourselves because we feel like society will judge us We die inside because we never felt alive We limit love because we never experienced it’s measures To love and be loved ? We will never understand it’s depth Why? Because first we have to love ourselves
