Fuck Love

No longer do I seek thee

Oh wretched feeling of confusion

Causing me to forget who I am for who I feel

You cut me deep, making a wound that will never heal

I just can’t be with you love

Over the years we’ve waned and waxed like moon cycles

Never quite getting to a balance

Always head over heels or nothing at all

You influenced my stupid ways

Making me look like a fool in the worst ways

But still I sought that feeling

That feeling that’s been described to me for years in many forms

But I never truly felt you

I only imagined what someone else’s love would feel like

Never having love of my own

So to you love

Fuck you

You never made me feel brand new

Only made a brand new fool

I never cried tears of joy

Only rivers of pain

My heart never healed

I stay broken hearted

You were never my best friend

Just another enemy that controlled my mind

You dashed my heart to pieces

Broken beyond repair

I no longer feel the pleasure

No longer have a need

No longer feel anything but the numbness

That comes from many sleepless nights

Thinking about one day

When I no longer have to hate to love you

 

Sweet Dreams

The night is growing old, my love

As the sun retires to its fiery bed

And the south wind gently cools the day’s remnants

My thoughts turn to you, my dear

Your smile chases away the troubles of the day

Your touch ignites longing feelings

Feelings of emotional abundance

Draw me in like passionate lovers embrace

Kiss me

Please!

I want to feel you deeply

Immersed in this sweet, midsummer night

Our breathing slows as we adjust to the comforting of our bodies

Our eyes become heavy as the night relaxes us

Cool breeze lightly floats in through the balcony door

My night is wonderful

Your night is lovely

Our night is pleasant, pleasurable and profound

Sweet dreams, mi amore

Sweet dreams
