Sometimes you keep walking back
into the same crucible and burning
even healed spots again, you go on
recycling the pain believing some
love is totally worth charring for.
I've done this everyday, I take your
bullets, drown in the deep despair,
break my back, go through fire for
you, I even walk dusty roads and
get my hands ***** for you. I've endured the pain of patience
hoping it would pay because
of you... I would even willingly
walk into the hades for you...
for you I've sacrificed a lifetime...
sadly you are an ingrate...
You have never appreciated
whatever I did, do and can
endure for you...I even
dammed up my emotions
when you said they were
too volatile for you, I
caged the tiger of my
obsession with you
for you...I'm still biting
my tongue for you...guess
ultimately I'll also have to
give up and walk away
for you...I'll grudgingly
walk away without
looking back to save
you the ache of
watching a lad
shed tears
for you...
