Loving You

I’m trying my hardest

To love someone new

Should be as simple

As me loving you

It’s easy at first

But soon

The mood sours

It lasts not even an hour

Loving her is next to impossible

Loving her seems a terrible task

I fear she’ll never love me back

Stubborn, negative, dishonest

As sensitive as a sea anemone

I walk on eggshells

Does she feel nothing?

This is a true challenge, I feel

To love someone, I’ve neglected

To pick her up, to give her love

She does not seem to understand

How can I ever tell her I love her

When I can’t even bring myself to write it down

When I know she would not believe it

Still, hate to watch her drown

I do love her

I’ve also hated her

She favorites the latter

Next time we look in the mirror

I will shout it out, next time I see my reflection

I will tell her I love her, no matter what face she makes

Our love is buried deep down

Lost in time, lost in loss

I will need to dig deep

Be brave enough for us

I must make her believe

Love is a real thing

Without it we cease to exist

I will love you

In Spite of you

I will love you

Without you

I will love you
