It amazes me how fast
things escalate
from a little to
something I can't hold
with my little handsIt only takes a while
for love to end up
in pain and it's not
love that will stay
with you through
the yearsIt amazes me so much
that I decided to watch
from afar— just watching—
and it's amazing how
fast things become
something more
until it kills you
from the insideIt only takes a while
for time to end up
as none and it's not
the amount of minutes
you have left that will stay
—it's the years you've lost
trying to live up to the things
you don't deserveIt amazes me—more so—
how things given are the
things I don't want and
the things I wish for
are those that I can't have
and I suppose that's life
—an endless sequence of
want and dreaming
to never be fulfilled
It only takes a while
before hope becomes
bitterness and it's not hope
that's going to kill you
—it's pain, it's time
and it's bitterness
that's going to stay
forever
