It hurts so much to love
To know that I will never
Be loved in return…
But I won’t try,
Try to be loved,
Because love is a thing you can’t control,
And control the way you express it,
Because expression is a form of communication
And communication is the key
to love!
Of all things,
love;
“The greatest thing you will ever know”
But know that it hurts like a dagger
To your heart
Letting your blood,
Your life
spill from your insides,
Like water from the Nile.
Throw myself into exile ,
For I will never give in,
Never let go.
Pick up my blood
And drink it down
Hold on to my life
And bare it down,
Because my life
is love
And I love my life
And I won’t give in or sacrifice
To the cause of hate
As a hate being a state,
State of distaste for having
To berate those full of ignorance.
To the common folk,
Pick them up,
Flip them around,
Throw them down,
Down to the ground,
Below the ground
To their level.
Pick up that pebble
And put it in my shoe
And walk.
Like Stevie said
We will walk together
hand in hand
Knowing of an unknown unspoken love that lives in this world.
But not ours.
Because I love
And you don’t…
No,
Won’t,
Can’t,
Don’t
Know
How
Feeling
Knowing
That you miss out.
So watch me walk,
And know that I walk
Forever and always with you in my mind,
But never by my self
Or by my side,
Because I carry with me my pride
And it won’t ever die.
Even through the tears I will walk with that pebble in my shoe.
“Dare” the pebble calls,
He dares me to walk
Not knowing where I am going
But where I have gone.
The pebble,
He keeps me here,
The pebble
my only prayer,

You
my pebble.
