The ins and outs #BecauseILoveYou

Because I love you

simple words.

Multiple meanings

can be heard.

Themes of passion

much can amount.

Themes of possesive

can't live without.

New on the scene

bright young face.

Eyes turn to gaze at the heart wrapped in lace.

And there they are

too perfect to bear.

Smiles bright, charming air

every moment you want them there.

But there's a thin line

between good and bad.

Starts out well

until they get mad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Breathing heavy, tears fall as they shout

trapped in a circle, can't get out.

Running, raspy, righteous breath

the good is gone, theres nothing left.

Maybe a hit, maybe a word

maybe you can't believe what you've heard.

Nails cracked and bruised as you try to crawl out

manipulative words you believe in and out.

"You can't leave, why would you do that to me

I'm only saying these things "

because I love you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Phyche bruised

but safe and sound.

You found your courage

you found the way out.

Family and friends all there to support

but for some reason you feel out of sorts.

Depressed, distressed, emotions destitute

all the sudden you feel theres nothing left of you.

Falling, crawling, no end in sight

can't look in the mirror I don't want to fight.

Friends can only do so much

your life is dragging but in a rush.

Trapped in skin that you can't stand

mind is a barren, empty land.

Everyone is there

but you feel that no one sees.

Your heart has rotted

it's an unbearable disease.

You've finally given up

but no one understood.

You leave the flag

buried in mud.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They're new on the scene

fresh faced and fair.

They see you sitting 

with un-brushed hair.

You catch their eye

and their smile brightens up.

You hide your face

your body closed up.

A tint of hurt in your brow

your energy flurries, get out now!

They ignore your plea 

they trot on over.

Your eyes roll

at the sight of this joker.

They come to your side 

their voice in your ear.

Stirs up the fellings

the ones you fear.

You take a chance 

you give them your name.

Your dead heart beats

with a revived tang.

Get home that night

what have I done.

They're all out to hurt me

no such thing as the one.

You stare at the phone

dreading that text.

Your friends are excited 

but you only reflect.

I can't handle the pain

my life can't sustain.

Please don't hurt me

that's all I'm saying.

Time goes by

and friendship blossoms.

A smile returns

you suddeny feel awesome.

Talk about everything

the world's every known.

Conversation never ends

the season of love blows.

Trust and loyalty

the bond shows.

You're there for eachother

don't feel a low.

The family loves them

your friends all swoon.

But there's smothing your hiding,

they ask one afternoon.

After digging and digging

they get to the problem.

You've been avoiding 

talking about them.

With weary breath you open up

their loving soul listens and hugs.

"Let me teach you,"

they will say.

"Allow me please

to show you the way."

"Why" you ask

"why do this for me?"

They chuckle and say 

"Its simple sweety."

Because I love you.
