I know so much more about you than you realize I see the pain in your eyes though you try and hide You have such a twisted view of love You've heard the words I love you while seeing the physical manifestations of hate You believe a person loves because they have to Not because of their own free will You've seen your family fall apart And you know its not what you want Yet you cant seem to totally detatch yourself from their ways Its embedded in your heart Its become a part of who you are You try and tear yourself away, to do what is right and learn about love the right way in its truest form But you get caught up in your old negative pattern You lie as a means of escaping From reality, from life, from the pain you experience on a daily basis from the one person who is supposed to love you the most Love you unconditionally Your mother doesnt even know the real effects of love Shes never seen it herself So the cycle continues and no one knows when it will stop Only time will tell the ending So its not that I blame you for being that way I see where youve gotten your backward ideas But just because I dont blame you Doesnt mean I can stay here with you I do know how to love But theres no way for me to teach you And its not being fair to myself I must go and find someone who can love me back The right wayBirth sign: Cancer
