Your Hate

By nightshade

As I look into your azure eyes
I float upon the ocean of your soul
As your lips caress my skin
I sit and wonder if you can dispel the darkness within
You light a fire that dwells inside me
And sheds a little light allowing me to see
But a burst of pain, puts out the flame
My heart starts to turn cold
And regret causes my mind to fold
So many burnt bridges left behind
Yet somehow I feel that I was blind
Blind to the love given so free
Never realizing that it was meant for me
Probing and searching for some type of hate
Telling myself I didn't deserve it
That it was my fate
But yet here I am asking you to stay
Just hold me close keep the pain at bay
