Cold Sun



Don't ever leave me
for a dude you aren't sure of;
Is this for a show off?
I doubt so -:
Perhaps,
Your heart has found
another place to reside by;
You've said your "goodbye"
without a single word -:
Love was never meant
to be this harmful;
We've twisted the definition
of lust for love -:
__
Sometimes;
We hold on to pain
instead of love,
then think its love -
Most times;
We fall in love
with the hope of
making it out alive;
Some have died for love,
while some have died in the name of love -:
Nobody is ever right,
not even your instincts
can guide you from
falling for a wrong type,
Right ?
__
Though
the sun always find its way
to serve its purpose,
Its never always right on time;
At times it turns to be a bit cold,
But that is just nature -:
Please leave your signature
To show you were once part of this sick-nature;
Everything forms part of one's fate,
Hurt and getting hurt-:
__
