Ode To Love

By HeLlSeND

All of my life was spent without you
Not even once could you see me through
Blinding my views and stealing my sense
Leaving me broken, lonely and tense
All through the world I see it as real
All that I need is patience to deal
With all the disgust I have in my heart
Without a clue then where do I start?
Will you find my speck in this whirling black pit?
Or am I supposed to hunt through all of this shit
Hunt I decide as the masses swirl by
I’ll look for you in this massive lie
Digging in darkness for what I know not
Knowing inside it’s so easy to spot
Effort put forth reveals nothing true
All of my energy went to find you
All of my energy is wasted now
Wasted away, left wondering how
How is it so that one is so sure
That this one is fake and this one is pure
How can one know without deny
Nothing is sure, there’s always goodbye
Lonely and tired, I’ll just wait here
Your non-existence is all that I fear
Maybe you’re real and you’ll come to me
Shadows reveal nothing to see
Patiently wasting away in this plight
Longing only for your distant light
Screaming,
my hope fading
tonight……

    I'm here baby, no need to cry...unless that wasn't for me, then I am going to kill you. Sorry.

    This is really good stuff. A little hard to read, maybe some breaks? Honestly though, looking for a soulmate, you put it so well. If you'd format it, I'd put it in my favorites.

    Over a year later I read this again and I still love it.
