Love-BitterSweet

What are you?

How does one put you into words?

A feeling, an emotion, a person, a thought

There are words

But it's not enough

Are you the beating in my chest

That speeds up when my thoughts fall my beloved?

Are you the ache I feel in my heart

When my thoughts fall on a past love?

Such a bittersweet moment I have

While I lie in bed, tossing and turning

Pondering over how to describe you

How to paint you in the right light

As something that saved me

And as something that damned me all the same

Why must you be so two faced with me

Either be kind or be not

Do not keep switching between the two

I will not be able to take it, feeling

Your sweet hand, which holds me up

Tossing me away in the same motion once again

I will not be able to take

Giving my all to you

And believing, truly believing

You'd give your all to me as well

Only to find streaks of tears

That used to be pathways of kisses

Or perhaps it is not you who change but myself

Am I just laying the blame on you?

Am I accusing you so inaccurately?

I'll never know

For I do not even know how to describe you

I do not know what you are
