Been chill for a while, now im back
Love is sacrifice...
I can love you better than he can
Im more precious than that man
In any other circumstance we would be
Together as one entity
Man and wife or soon to be
Kids on the way or maybe already here
An endless love, to one another dear
But as each year passes by
I fall down even more from the sky
My dreams in the clouds
Come down as rain, crashing to the ground
You can’t feel my pain, only hear the sound
Of my rants and raves
Circumventing my true issues
That’s why I spend my nights
Clutching on tissues
And why each day we fight
Because I really miss you…
I miss my friend, my baby, my boo, my heart
The girl I could depend on to always handle her part
Any stumbling block I tripped on she could soften the landing
Any emotion I felt, and I could tell no other
She would be there to listen, with heartfelt understanding
My best friend, my baby, who never dealt me shady
Never tried to berate me
Tear me down or evade me
All she did was care for me, and I care for her
But I see our paths cannot run together
I was her shelter in the storm, but now there’s clearer weather
The last drops fall and the sun rises high
Drying her clothes as she dries her eyes
The pain of a past life finally now subsides
And she moves on, ready to venture forth in warm sunbeams
No longer in need of shelter, but she still rents the building
A vestige of lesser meaning than it would like to believe
But I see the reason that I must now concede
Because for me to intervene would bring pain to my love
And if love is pain, my love can no longer gain
For the strain on my brain, drives my mental state far beyond insane
And if pain is love, then she is the love of my life
But how I wish, she could be the love in my life
