HURTS SO GOOD
(Author suggestion- listen to Lana Del Ray sing “Summertime Sadness” while reading.)
Where is my head ?
I’m scared, I’m thrilled,
I’m on a tight rope.
I’m out of my mind
in love again.
This lightning bolt
is tearing me apart.
I thought I forgot you,
I thought we were over,
but , I just fell apart.
A new love, I could never find.
I have been so lonesome for you
I guess you’re burned into my mind.
I’m scared so scared.
Should you and I try one more time ?
Sipping this wonderful feeling ,
listening to more of your lies.
Self-esteem, I’m giving it up.
I’m diving in, throwing caution to the wind.
You are a ghost of my memories past,
this feeling your giving me again,
I know it’s not real and that hurts,
but it hurts so damn good.
I will likely cry tomorrow.
That’s the price I have to pay.
What happened to us ?
We thought our love
was the eternal kind.
There was so much love !
Did you give up or was it me and
“Wasn’t It Good “ still plays in my mind.
Do we owe it to ourselves ?
Should we give it another try ?
This love between you and I,
I’ll ignore the distant drums
that make me so scared.
The fights we had ,
our hearts that bled.
Seeing you here today
my passion is still alive, I know.
Can we go somewhere else, because
I have something I need to say
and words keep getting in the way…
Should we give us another try?
Should we throw caution
to the wind ?
