Love

Why does everyone else get a chance but I never do

Will I never be allowed to feel that feeling?

Back when I sat on that couch

I wondered if there was any reason why I shouldn't slit my throat

I told myself that there was still some good I could spread out into the world

But that can only keep my passion burning for so long

Am I destined to only pour out my heart

But never receive love of my own

Will I only be fit for self sacrifice

But never be given a love of my own

Is all I am an ego boost for someone else?

Why do I still keep going on

If I'll never get to experience my deepest desire

To have a love of my own

To love and to hold

A reason worth fighting for

But if I will never get that, then why am I still here?

As I keep pouring out

Getting closer to empty

Have I yet to sow enough karma

Am I some sort of atrocity

To be ostracized and kept waiting on the sidelines?

How much longer will I have to push

Before I fall off this cliff

I just want a reason that can keep me going

And I'd love to know her name

Before it's too late
