How do you get past the pain
of loving someone who doesn't love you?
The feeling that lives deep down in your soul
that hasn't been corrupted by the darkness.
Such an inkling of hope still exists
a hope to find a way to extinguish that hope.
To never feel this way, to love this way
and to never live this way ever again.
Not a day goes by where I don't wonder,
was it something I did, was it something I said.
Will I ever be enough for someone else,
as I have learned to love who I am?
Except for the love between a mother and child,
I will never know any other kind of love.
I no longer believe that it is even possible.
No doubts, no hope, no time for it left in this hourglass.
