It doesn’t matter how much love I give you
How much time I spend with you
The experience that will be gained
Wont matter
The lessons that will be taught in return
Wont matter
Someone else will come along to hurt you
I can tell you about that day
Warn you in advance
But I know you wont heed to my words
or remember much
It will be many years from now
Black will turn to grey
Words will no longer suffice
Rules will break
Expectations will become of great importance
Dreams will be born
Feelings will blossom
But how can I save you from the hurt
Save you from the tears that will spill
The promises that will break
Pain that will spread like wild fire
It will play with your mind
Rob you of sleep and common sense
It will provide you with momentary comfort
At the same time fill you with unease
It brings both joy and grief
It is what gives life colour and purpose
But can also make it seem hollow at the same time
Sometimes it gives life
Sometimes it takes it away
