Giving Up Love

A sad song about two people parting because they can't satisfy each other's needs..

I'm in love with you..

Don't you hate knowing that you love him and he loves you too.

But you can't give each other what you need,

And your heart's about to bleed.

No more sound..

Silent room,

Torn up sheets upon the ground.

You wanted to play hide and seek..

You the finder,
Me the hider,

But I hid to well..
And protected myself.

I gave you the key
To my heart
To my soul,

But that isn't what you need

You needed comfort,
Needed pleasure,
Don't you see?

I wanted sweetness,
Wanted kindness,
Not sexual desire.

I wish to hug you
And place kisses on your head,

But that leads to other things, I'd rather skip instead.

You are my world,
You are my life,
Come hear my plea.

Darling I'm in love with you and you love me.

I don't want to ever have to let you go.

You're my sweetheart,
You're my angel,
Don't you know?

But I'm incapable of giving what you need.
I just wish it didn't have to be this way

Because I'm begging now,
I'm begging on my knees.

Why can't God just make this easier for me?

Because I'm in love!

And I'm crying
Yes, I'm crying

I need you..

Won't you say,
oh won't you say you need me too

I think I'm dying here inside,
And we all know why.

Because we're parting,
Now it's time to say goodbye..

The alchemy of love and relationships captured well in this imbalance of needs and wants. Nice stuff!

[Cool Girl]

Thank you so much!

Young people put too much emphasis on things that in deeper analysis are not that important. They do not listen to the simple exchanges that each tries to tell the other and when push comes to shove, they have no idea what has happened?

[Cool Girl]

Yes indeed

Young love is often confused with or ruined by lust. A kiss or a cuddle - doesnt always have to lead to bed. You wrote a very astute song about the differences in what two people want from a relationship at a given time.
Nice one CG.

This is a great piece. There is a ton of swelling emotions and tides of reality. Something love isnt the end all of all, sometimes two people can love and still not work out. great poem

This was a really good poem...I could really feel the emotions and pain throughout the poem and I found myself relating with it as well!!! Great job and keep writing!!!!

[Cool Girl]

Thank you :) :)

[Heartful5160]

You're more than welcome...I enjoyed it!!

[Emily]

That first line really just tells me want the poem is all about!
I like it!
Keep it up!

So much genuine emotional expression generated for a made-up relationship. Anyone who has been in this type of misguided love should identify immediately with the feelings described. A very nice piece of writing, very believable. take care...dan

[Cool Girl]

Thank you, Dan! It's nice of you to stop by :)
