Love

My life was dull.
Empty
Nothing but darkness
Till one word brought the color back.

Love,
One word to describe my life.
Happiness and Hate all in one package

Love,
Who knew it could be so easy to
fall for the right or wrong person

Love,
People say it's a blessing,
Finding your true love and riding
Off into the sunset living
Happily ever after..
But it’s not that easy

Love,
You have to find that one person
in this cruel world that will
forever make you happy in life.
They don't tell you all the extra fee's you
Have to pay for.

Trust,
It's so hard to come by this fee
It's so easily overlooked.

Trust,
No cheating.
Cheating can tear someone apart
From the inside out

Trust,
No lying.
That's what puts this package on
backorder.

Communication,
Being able to speak to each other
instead of screaming at each other
When you're upset.

Communication,
Wishing hateful words didn't
cut like knives or pound like a
headache that won't go away.

Communication,
Compliments that are nice.
Band-Aids that heal the cuts of words.
A needle that sews up the bullet wounds
of each other's hate.

Commitment,
Saying I will be there for you
I would rather die for you then live myself.

Commitment,
I won't leave you. Ever.
I won't quit on you. Ever.
I won't lie.
I won't cheat.
I won't use your feelings as something to
play with till you break down and think
suicide in the Only answer.

But here's the problem
We aren't Trustworthy.
We do lie.
We do cheat.
We don't Communicate.
We scream.
We fight.
We keep turning the blade till someone dies.
And we aren't Committed.
We leave.
We quit.
We run away from our problems to
scared to face them and fight.

Love,
It’s a blessing and a curse.
Love,
Step one to getting a partner for life.
Love yourself first.
