"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

My heart is blurred,
Confused and in chaos,
Constantly breaking,
And being sewn up.
Falling in love,
And trying to let go -
Handing you pieces of my heart
(Whether I want to or not
Is irrelevant).
Can't control how I feel -
Though I try.
Every night, I'm this much
Closer to loving you...
Every morning, I'm broken
Again.
Telling myself to gain control,
While my heart free-falls iteself
Right into your hands.
