Being Me: The Memoirs of a Caribbean Child

Love (Part III)

The suffocation has subsided

The emptiness was released

And all the feelings I had before

Came back running through the door

And the pain

The never ending pain that hurts

Has not began to move

For it still bleeds and cries out

No one can hear it

The cries for help are roaring

And everyone passes by

Never to help plow through it

A web of lies

A bowl of deceit

People think that revenge is sweet

But it will bite you hard when you sleep

Love has no way to go

It has been placed at incognito

And sounds of love

That are pure in fact

Good in deed, trustworthy

And it makes all the difference

Is there room to mend?

Is there room to be true?

I want the love to flourish for you

But why not for me? Why?

Because of your good heart

This empty feeling will never part

And once you turn on the light

There will be no love in sight

Love will find its way

It should not catch decay

But true love is poured out

And the true person will show it

Will I find my soulmate

Who will be there for me

Through the thick and thin

And anything else that lies within

The love for my soulmate

I can't wait for it

I don't want another  year to pass by

Without that person by my side

I want to be loved

I need to be loved

The pain is never ending

Finding it is far reaching

Emptiness is far stretching

Loneliness is strong, long lasting

Love, will take time
