The Struggle

The struggle has resurfaced
between my want and need.
I want to be in love with you,
I need to be alone with me.
Love has become so elusive
I've forgotten how it feels
can't remember what it looks like
so ill-equipted to deal.
The want it blurs my sight
like a mirage in the night
where lust resembles love
then fades away in morning light.
I'm exhausted of the search
and drowning from within
so easily pulled under
by loves fraudulant twin.
I can no longer trust
sparks of instinct that might move
cause I've seen little behind your smile
so in love without proof-
of a beautiful mind, a golden heart
I intoxicate with attraction
and it's there from the start.
I've created these illusions
and played tricks on my mind.
Re-writing the scripts,
romanticizing every line.
I need to be alone with me
to look at you and know I'll see
all that you are and all that you're not
then maybe this struggle will no longer be faught

True! So very true! I feel exactly like you!! Very appropriate wording and fast easy going flow. The bitterness and hope in this poem are very clear! Good one.
Let's not loose hope,
Anne :D |
