Can I Learn To Love Again
O why does love leave me in such despair?
My heart was breaking bit by bit.
Now, only now, does it come to light.
Love a bright, shining stallion.
Galloping through and crushing dreams.
O days, why do you waste yourselves on my pathetic heart?
The man that I loved is gone.
The time I spent is gone.
Fluttering, fluttering in the summer’s wind.
To find myself, alone, and crying for mercy.
O why does love have to hurt so much?
When the clock ticks again.
The days become real.
I scream in agony.
Holding on to the little pieces of a past life.
O why shall I miss my lover as roads miss cars?
My back is cut and bruised from him.
Yet I clutch on, and will not let go.
My hands are red and sore from him.
Yet I breathe pure happiness into his air.
O why do I die from love?
