Poetry & Self-Awareness

Is it the love that hurts us?

Or is it the people?

We fight so hard to find our equal

But we fail when we think the ride will be peaceful

When you find one who is a keeper

You think that’s where the pain stops, but oh it gets deeper

Praying you found one who isn’t a cheater

Hoping you found yourself a dreamer 

Someone who will finally be sweeter 

One who isn’t eager to hurt you 

Eager to flirt and get under her skirt 

Is it the love that is “evil”?

Or is it the people?

When you find the one, they are coming with their own demons

The love might change every season

Some people really want love, a lot of other people be teasing 

They are only interested in pleasing, there is no meaning 

And they end up leaving… sometimes with no legit reason

Is it the love that hurts us? 

Or is it the people?
