Love Gave Me a Reason Part I.

Love gave me a reason to: 
commit suicide
Slitting every warm sensation from my heart
Leaving my wound open so you can see inside…
                    Look…
Can you see the PAIN on my face…
No…
    you wont find it there…
Instead the pain runs through these VEINS
My Brain fails to cooperate because my heart's going insane
Breaths become harder to sustain
And I… can't….in…hale

Love didn't make it easy to
                   LISTEN…..
Can you hear the beating in my chest?
No….
       Because there is none…

My heart stopped 
When it was dropped

I placed it in your hand
Trusting the flaws of a man

Sometimes you need to take a moment and SIT to UNDERSTAND 

I wish SADNESS could allow you to TOUCH ME….
So you can feel the softness of my love,
But your kind of abrasiveness caused it to die
A kind of case like this that caused you to lie

Because of Love:
DEATH KEEPS DYING in the grave that my heart continues to dig you
Always being resurrected from the depths of a soul that lived you
A rebellious memory
Failing to forget you
I hate that YOUR GHOST HAUNTS ME
So why do I fail to quit you?

Married to Love and not you
I felt like your wife without a ring
Was a caged bird and for years my wings were clipped 
so I couldn't fly and it was impossible to sing
I have nothing left to do besides erase you from my past
And replace you just as fast
And turn colder than the ice that's sitting in my glass

I wish I could get you out of my system
But my memories keep me as a victim

Yes I AM without you
And the same is true that you ARE without me
Should have valued the love that you would lose
When you put a price on the present you made me choose
Because of YOU my soul has a tattoo,
That kind of looks like cupid's bruise  
Yet I manage to prevail
Living a life with your absence
Freed from the shackles of entrapment
