"Just Make Another..." by Thorn

You won't make yourself a memory
As a heartache in my past.
You would not be the first,
You would not be the last.

Written on the Wall,
Soon to be repainted.
You promised me your all;
Your promises are tainted.

Do I have the strength
To protect myself from "friends?"
Will you be there for me?
Or hurt me in the end?

I feel vulnerable to you.
Am I trusting where it isn't due?
You say you'll never hurt me,
And the fear fades away.
Dark thoughts form in my mind...
Do you mean the words you say?
 
Now it's YOUR turn.
Make ME understand.
I'm slipping through your fingers,
Like fine grains of sand.
Tell me that you love me,
But only if you mean it.
Hold me close and kiss me,
But only if you mean it.

Are all those who wander truly lost?
I thought I found that which I sought,
But what was the cost?
Did I lose Myself to find you?
Will I lose you to find
Myself?

How have I never commented on this? This piece stands as a pinacle, a high point of your work. Easily one of if not the best. Others have put in pieces they love, but I would need to copy the whole poem.

yeah, isn't that annoying when you read something you like, but can't think of anything to say that hasn't already been said? Thanks for commenting anyway, though.

i see why you say to read this. that's the way the feeling labeled love makes ya think i guess. seems love is just another form of fear.
