"Everyone says love hurts, but that's not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love. But in reality, love is the only thing in this world that covers up all the pain and makes someone feel wonderful again." - unknown


You showed me how to love;
You taught me how to care.
Soon I learned to worry,
And found out how much I could bear.
I gave everything away,
Well, everything that mattered,
But the pieces you returned
Were dirty, crooked, shattered.
Though I knew how to fight,
For you, I would give up.
Now there's no halfway point -
It's just an empty cup.
But the saddest part of all
Is the reason that I cry:
In the field that is my life,
I'm watching all the flowers die.
