I try so hard;

You see me not.

I watch you from afar,

Praying you'll see me for who I am.

You see,

But what I see is more powerful.

Why must our feelings go crazy?

Why can't they stay at bay?

My friend, tis love.

Love keeps us from breaking.

It is something of beauty;

Yet something of heartbreak.

Say goodbye;

For the past is no more.

But what of the present!

What may this so-called beauty do?

How can it help?

Find your soulmate.

We the people do not realize,

That love comes but once in a lifetime.

And if we do not catch it,

We may lose it.

If we do not protect it,

It may leave.

Love is fragile like a rose;

Yet every rose has it's thorns.

We must learn to live with them;

For love is something one cannot live without.
