LOVE Does'Nt EXisT

Searching for a version of love that doesn't exist in her world.

Her lonely heart withers;

Her undying faith grows old.

*

Rolling in like the ocean,

Falling away like rain.

Holding onto their cold sin,

Only scars remain.

*

Love is what she wanted.

Love is what they got.

Love is the one thing that leaves her empty,

And the one thing they cannot live without.

*

Love begins in the twinkle of an eye,

And wanders at the batting of another.

Each one calculating, 'how' to become her lover.

*

The new open old wounds;

The old create new.

The possibilities are endless,

Their promises untrue.

*

She stares into his eyes,

Unable to see her pride and its defeat.

Blinded, for this moment is already obsolete.

*

Love cannot survive if its beat is flatlined,

Love cannot be seen if a lover has gone blind.

*

Existence is futile for a love that has no future,

Intercepted by reality,

The force was sure to wake her.

*

Opening her eyes,

She now looks for the end in the beginning,

Too afraid to sleep again,

Too afraid to lose sight of their sinning.

*

With no sign of loves life,

She calls off the search;

For, she is tired of shooting down loves sadistic urge,

She now sits in the shadows, waiting for her next victim to emerge.
