LET IT BE FOR LOVE



   I don't know why we keep doing this

after all the tears and all the years running headlong at each other knowing full well

our toxic combination will only bring only sorrow

   Stumbling blood drunk and blind time after time  self destructive obsessive  fools

  We bash each other with our hearts and drown each other in  guilt and passion

and yet no one can hurt us quite as deeply as we can ourselves

we know every soft tender pulse and just how hard to push for that inevitable   searing soaring pain

  The pleasures now are not a fair trade for a tear soaked bed or months self castigation

the rising tide of passion is no longer joyful and good memories no longer outwiegh the bad
and so now before the last of whatever love is left is lost, turns bitter  

my love this must be our ending now ,for ever ... for both of us

This time as we walk away ...for all we were


Let it be for the last time ... for love
