What can I obtain from a book
What to me was actually dealt
Breaking down men and relationships
Never explaining why pain is felt
Why do I run to my girlfriends complaining
Seeking guidance that’s far from help
Telling me of some inner strength
They have yet to find within themselves
No book ever shelved
Nor female companion
Listening as I explain
Can fathom my inner turmoil
Who I love is my life’s greatest pain
My smile turned into
Tears unconstrained
What have I gained?
I can tell you what I’ve lost
Why do I still love?
Exposing myself to hatred
Highly cost
Subtracting my happiness and laughter
Left emotionally drained and sad because
I still haven’t found stamina
“WHY”
Is an empty question
If I wont open myself up
To be answered
