why is it so hard(a poem about love)

by antwan fields - Aries

that i waited so long, a curse
that i held off my judgement, a blessing
that my world revolved around you, a shock

i stayed faithful, as i always was
i kept the light burning, always
somewhere, though it was 
what your friend jane says

answer to you
i cant do
somehow i know
about you too

i never asked my friends about you
i never needed to
they knew, but never gave their own advice

now on the other hand, you were insecure
so you picked a fight
im not good enough for you
anymore

why must love always laugh at me
why is it so hard
hatred froze my love for you

no one will love you again
no one cares
no one will like you
no one will dare

is this some kind of game, i yell
to you, is it fun
i gave my life to you
i wanted to be with you forever

when you bring your friends into it
it always goes down the drain
show no more love 
on your relationship, a strain

deafened by temptation, you were
naive, was i
as i think of you, i let out 
a sigh

what could have been
almost, but because,
the way we should have been
it never was...
