[hometext] => this poem just kinda happened
[bodytext] => Burned out Emotionally worn My soul is now torn Over things I think about Dead to my feelings I no longer feel I’m disconnected from by being Cause I gave it all I lost it all Step back And watch my life fall Caught in parlay Between my heart and my mind I hope this is an amusing display Cause my mind knows better And it tries to reason But my heart won’t listen It’s totally sold out Cause love is what It wants to boast about So my mind pleaded But rational thought Isn’t what my heart needed It decided to bet itself On these high stakes It gave itself up And left me alone It lost itself In devastating heartbreak My soul turned to stone Without a heart How do I find my place My worst fear I don’t know how to face Love I’ve fought to keep it And I’ve looked to find it I’ve sat back and lost it I’ve tried so hard To find What all these people Keep on talking about I’m caught in a bind I know what it’s like But I can’t figure it out Now I’m consumed with doubt That love will ever know me That love will ever hold me That love will ever care for me Like I cared for it That love will ever treat me Like I long to be treated That love will ever need me Cause it’s all I’ve ever needed I’m fed up with this game I’ll never be the same I’m gonna throw in the towel Step back… And take a bow Walk off the stage I hope you had your fun Cause this is the last page Of my struggle I’m sick of living my life I lived to love And felt the love begin But now I live without The love within © Wayne Wende [comments] => 2 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 22 [informant] => swiftsouljah [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
