Upside down

I went up the stairs to the top step.

Getting up there,

I was put upside down.

That's what love is about.

You are challenged to remain silent,

While the heart keeps screaming.

You stay when you can and leave when you don't want to.

If you say it's okay,

Perjury is the crime imposed on you.

In your heart, you sacrifice your own pride,

While you remember the prejudice you once had

Against those who sacrificed the same in the name of love and against pain.

And here I am, sacrificing time.

I learned that waiting shouldn't be a problem,

As long as I finally understand

That we'll be fine in the end,

Together until the forever for which my heart burns,

Or separated for our good,

Without being able to return to the point where everything stopped.
