Love?


Its raining, I'm dreaming, of being with someone. Or is it just the music clouding my mind, And my tears resulting from the lightning and downpour coming at this time. 

A lightning bolt to the heart and through the spine and straight to the mind is what rejection feels like. The stakes are too high, might as well be burning on a stake, I wouldn't mind. 

Then you try and act like everything's fine but inside, you're dieing. You say you understand but you couldn't be further from the truth. 

Then you try and act normal but you have to deal with the pain. You wish all your love wasn't in vain. You wish she felt  the same. But things don't work that way.
