Love, You Are Not Welcome Here

 

You promise life

And then you bring the reaper

You promise a rainbow

But rain clouds appear

You promise creation

And spawn destruction

How dare you?

You own my soul at your whim

And lead me in a delusional stupor

To unleash hell within

You leave me alone and broken

To pick up the pieces of my heart

Put it back together

To have it broken apart

Your promise hides a lie

You give me wings

To convince me to fly

Only to have me fall to the ground again

Pain unbearable

Dying again

Getting up and repeating the process

Damn you to hell Love!

You are not welcome here

You are the source of the pain that I fear
