You say you know, but do you really?
What's its like to love someone
So much that other emotions go numb
To wonder how their day is going
When something's wrong, it bugs you if you're not knowing
No one understands why you're so happy
You see them, the butterflies in your stomach get flappy
The only person that knows how to make you smile
Haven't felt this good in quite a while
Nothing else seems to matter anymore
Their all you need in this messed up world
Their pain is yours, yours is theirs
The only person that really truly cares
Losing them, you'd never be able to bear
You say you know, but do you really?
The fears and visions of losing that one
Even though the thought seems so dumb
You get depressed just at the thought
Of losing the love that, for so long you have fought
You'd do anything to help it succeed
Yet being left behind is the only future you see
Quick you gotta think fast
Must think of something to make it last
Sit and talk with them bout how you feel
They do what they can to help you deal
Yet the problem that dont fully solve
Sometimes thoughts begin again to make depression evolve
Why cant this negativity just dissolve
You say you know, but do you really?
What it's like to finally think it's alright
Then one day, comes your worse fright
That one you love, decides to leave
You cry so hard, you cant even breathe
You sit and remmince on the good times you had
It doesnt help, just makes you more sad
You dont know what to do anymore
You feel alone and lost in the big messed up world
You've lost your happiness, you've lost your soul
And it was your heart that person has stole
You cant explain how you felt, dont' know where to begin
When they walked out and said "Can we still be friends?"
You start to sit and wonder, will you ever be able to love again?
Been through that plenty of times before
But I kept getting up and going back for more
Heartbreak after heartbreak, tear after tear
Going through it once more is my biggest fear
Don't know how to explain, don't know where to start
But from another love, I cannot bear to part
Why would you do that to someone you claim to love
Is there anybody else in the world thats just had enough
Do you really like dealing with that from day to day
Or is it truly going through the pain, something you can't honestly say
You say you know, but tell me honestly
Do you really?
Nice poem. I like poetry in which comes to pose a lot of questions.
