A/N: Hmm, I don’t really know what to say about this poem… As it’s probably one of my worst ones yet. Actually I think when I wrote this I was pretty confused what I was feeling, so I just sort of trudged my way through my writers block to write this. Still, please R&R and maybe I go through it a again and get it write this time. ^^;;

If the world were to end today it would be okay.
As long as I’m happy with each and everyday.
There’d be no sorrow or animosity,
As long as I knew that somebody loved me.

Pain, blood, and tears; It’s the code I live by
Yet love is the only thing that could let my soul fly.

They say a great poet understands the ballads of true romance,
So what am I, if I can hear the music but don’t know the dance?
Don’ t get me wrong. I believe in love. But why does it have to be so fucked up?

I’ve lived my life thinking I might have a real chance,
But now I believe loves a tragedy not a romance.

It’s like the end of Romeo and Juliet,
but only one of us has truly died
bother is left still breathing, yes sadly, left alive.

I feel I’ve been wronged by God and by Love
What the fuck is wrong with the Heavenly Father Above,
He seems more like a trickster, a charlatan of the heart.
Who deals from a loaded deck and hides his face in the dark.

But this is just a rant from a man whose been beaten by love
Whose worlds been torn asunder like the wings of a broken dove.
You may read this today,
but you’ll surely forget it tomorrow.
Yet I’m still left here to drown in my sorrows.

With all this said and done
I’ll still be glad
Because I have my love for you
So I could never be mad.
