True Love Hurts
Slowly and…passionately caressed her face.
Loved every bit of the way she made me give chase.
Her heart, not her tale
As the man, I’d played my part and did not fail.
I awoke every day,
Just to think of a new way
To make her laugh.
Loving her truly, I painted a new path
Leaving behind all of the criticism and this world of hate
On the other side, I sat and wait.
Waited on the day for her love I finally received.
But, to my dismay, I had been deceived.
It was not me who she required,
Not my love she desired.
I lost the only one who I truly cared for,
Remembering all of the pain, it was her—like me—I chose to ignore.
