Why do I Try�

love, try, cry

If this is love, then I don’t want to live,
When will you open your heart and learn to give.
Through it all I stayed by your side,
But deep down inside my heart cries.
Cause what I really want you will never be,
Why can’t I open my eyes and see.
You seem happy while I am sad,
A feeling before you, I never had.
Many nights I would lay in bed, while you though I was asleep,
But I secretly knew all the secrets you keep.
If this is your kind of love, I wont be part of it,
These feelings I have for you I want to rid.
I wont cry another day,
I want to forget all the words you say.
All of the “I love yous” and the “baby I’m sorries”,
While my friends throw me tacky pity parties.
I can’t believe after all this time I still haven’t learned,
You are the one feeling that always burns.
Taking from my happiness,
Leaving me with loneliness.
Breaking down my sanity,
While you build up your vanity.
I want to forgive you. I want to forget,
But this feeling it lingers in my troubled head.

[THE LOST ROSE]

There is a pattern of struggle that is going on with these series of writings. I enjoy the story line told from one's man perspective. Another great for you to us. Thanks!
