love hurts



Why did I search so long for this love?
A love that causes me so much pain.
Not every day is bad, but when he gets mad.
Makes you wonder if he loves you back.
With hurtful words, striking you down.
I dont want to lose him, but feels as I have.
My heart weighed down so heavy I can not move.
Is it worth loving someone, to hurt so much?
This pain usualy is only temporary. He shows love.
So is this why I hold on and don't give up?
No one should be treated like dirt.
Your feelings matter, but not to him?
But you imagine life without him, and that hurts more, so you endor.
You try to live life like its short, holding his love close. Trying not to fight or argue dum things.
Tip toe on egg shells hoping he doesn't get mad.
You dont fight all the time, but when you do...

Its like ripping your heart to shreds. Saying things you don't mean because they've hurt you.
Trying to get back to calm happiness again, but not knowing how to approach. What to say.
When you feel like your not loved anymore. You feel loneliness and so much sadness.
Sometimes can not breath if you've lost your love.
Endless tears stream down my face.
The harsh words are like daggers.
Each one thrown at your heart making your love seep from your eyes.
Hoping someday your love will be simple again.
No more heart ache and pain.
Love shouldn't hurt this much.
Especialy if your love is still alive. Live life short.
Love doesn't need to hurt now.
Fighting and arguing isn't worth the last you have with your love. If it was. Thats to bad.
Your not going to care about the last thing you fought about. When they die.
You'll just wish your love was with you again.
Losing your love hurts far more than your love hurting you.
But is the pain worth loving someone still?
The loss of your love is like losing a chunk of your heart.
You can never get that back. Instead you fill it with other things.
Try to let go, but never truly do. The imprint is forever there around that hole in your heart.
I'd rather to love, than to of never loved at all.
As they say it, Love does hurt in many ways.
But the good you hold onto forever.
