raven's rants
-love hurts-
When whoever uttered the words,
"We always hurt the ones we love"
they probably had no idea exactly how right they are
but most still continue to do what they are doing.
Hearts are fragile things,
weak and soft
they're easily broken,
smashed and crushed.
That's why most of us don't wear our hearts on our sleeves,
and guard this intimate part of ourselves with great zeal.
That makes it very difficult to hurt the man on the street.
But with someone you love,
and someone who loves you,
that shell isn't there.
we throw up that wonderful protective barrier
against the world is nonexistent
and in the beauty of love
we trust our dearest not to crush our delicate emotions
or break our fragile hearts.
But even when the love is true and genuine,
accidents happen.
With a proverbial flick of the wrist
or a prod of the finger,
an exposed heart can fall to pieces.
We don't mean to,
we don't try to,
but when handling something as delicate as trust,
the slightest fumble can open the floodgate of tears.
many bury their hearts deep within,
never to let anyone come close regardless of how worthy.
While they lead protected,
comfortable lives,
they hide themselves from love and all it has to offer.
It's an understandable act when you account for the pain,
but it does nothing to fulfill, create, or inspire.
However,
others refuse to run from the pain.
They glue the shattered pieces of their heart back together
and move on,
forgiving when appropriate,
forgetting when necessary.
Sometimes a broken heart can mean a goodbye,
sometimes it's just a new beginning,
but for these people,
it's never the end,
just another obstacle to overcome.
im trying.
but hun,
i cant do whatever you expect me to do
where were you when i needed you most?
'i cant be there for you all the time love.'
that was it.
i was thrown into the pit
and was forced to get out on my own
perhaps, i was too needy
or maybe, i was expecting too much from you
i dont know...
owells,
when you love a person too much,
you tend to succumb to overwhelming fears
then again,
when is loving enough,enough?
