Passion Pains

Like the sun and moon
You and I intertwine
Beauty and grace as we may be,
We’re never completely one

The rivers and streams
That endlessly seem
To glide down your face
Fall with our grace

And the moans of depression
That we soon learn are real
Are holding us apart
On opposite sides of the world

Like mountains and valleys
You and I combine
The highs and lows seem to glow
But never shine in time

Because the earth beneath us
Is constantly shifting
And moving us so close
Just to tear our hearts out

And in this endless cycle
Faces are not met
For we will only regret
We should just forget

I wish you and I could
Break from these forces
That bend and break
Our little obsession

We are not meant to be
Because a rose by any name
Is just as sweet
But a soul by any passion
Is never set free

You’ve deluded yourself
Your own light blinds you
Your love overtakes you
You try to come to me

But I am out of reach

And so you hear my voice
And try to see me again
But you are oh, so helpless
And cannot amend

Try and fail
Reach and fall
Go on the edge
Just to lose it all

Fall for me, will you?
You will only die
Because as your love grew,
Mine went awry

This is a poem about when someone likes you but they can't see that you don't like them back. It's a slightly mean poem, but sometimes the truth hurts, you know? It's a sincere poem I guess, but I didn't write it coming directly from me. I guess a part of me was in it, but it isn't directly related to my life.
