Heartbreak

Misinterpretations lead to confusion
Abused notions of love create beautiful illusions
Fusions of spirits
Lead to life long contusions
If communication’s despised
It welcomes negative intrusions

Love gave me solace
Filtered into the areas of my life
That were most vulnerable
Love gave me piece
Something to hold onto
When the world spun too quickly

I gave Love me
All of me and then some
I come from
Meager backgrounds
And dysfunctional settings
But I tried to overcome them… for Love

Poured my wealth of knowledge into Love’s cup
And continued to re-fill her up
Energy I obviously couldn’t re-up
Cuz now I’m drained
Heart doesn’t beat like it used to
It’s been worn too much
Couldn’t take the fuss
Consequences of a life without trust

What we had hoped to be hung as a pearl
Around my neck
Poor oyster didn’t think about the affect
Of his destiny
Sure he didn’t think his precious pearl would end up with me
Only to be ripped from it’s dwelling
As a testament to Love
Our love

A love that couldn’t mend differences
Because it didn’t see the worth
When Love’s been handed life on silver platters
It starts to believe it’s the norm
Faith without works
Isn’t sacrifice in any form
You can never feel the rain
If you’re always running from the storm
But us actors must perform
Stand tall in the face of heartbreak
And pretend it doesn’t hurt
What’s the point of having Love
If you can not see it’s worth
How can you really invest in love
If you can’t admit your own hurt
Relationships can’t work if
You haven’t dealt with you first
Which is why we’re given so many
Cuz in life…
We must rehearse

And realize that Love can only love you
When you love yourself first

Misinterpretations lead to confusion
Abused notions of love create beautiful illusions
Fusions of spirits
Lead to life long contusions
If communication’s despised
It welcomes negative intrusions
