#lovewar
❤️——
I guess love is meant to scare us. If it were easy, then it wouldn’t be worth working for. It wouldn’t be worth our effort to try and then try again. The heartbreak that comes with it is just a part of life. It’s what helps heal us and help us find what we are truly looking for, not just the fairy tale idea we have in our minds. Love is a challenge. We challenge ourselves to allow someone else to be a part of our lives.
I don’t even think we have a choice. When love happens, it takes you by surprise, with no warning.We let our hearts open and take on someone else’s. Their burdens become our burdens. Their battles become our battles. Their pain and joy becomes our pain and joy. We become instinctively protective over someone else and try to keep them safe from everything.
Maybe that’s the beauty of it. With every up, down, and space in between, love will always be worth fighting for. ♥️

we tried,
but it got too hard
it takes two,
to win this war
but...
when you gave up,
I stopped wishing for you
because it’s going to hurt to let you go,
but holding on to you will just tear me apart...

One must lose, the other must win
I'd stop fighting for you
If my loss is your gain
I'd rather lose this war
Than to keep fighting
Knowing you wouldn't be mine

For whom do we all rise each day
with what do we gain happiness
For ourselves the masses say
though this is folly with sadness
The marching soldiers who had gone
our children who pranced to war
Had carried our hopes and love on
would die to please us never-more
No more the laughter to our ears
left forever the taste of dirt
As ground belayed the sound of cheers
and feelings of others pride hurt
In a moment the lonely sound
fell heavy on every mans ear
As the truth echoed from the ground
even the boldest shook to hear
For then the songs all ceased to play
we looked to sky and then to friend
They felt there nothing left to say
for woe had summoned this the end
