You, I want to love you
And you, I would break
True, I can only hold you
And you, I'd never take

Through you were my friend
Now it's over
I cannot pretend
I feel below her

Nails into my back
Snakes within me
There's no turning back
She's within me

I only wanted love
Felt so cold

I wanted love
You can forget that
Because I don't need that
Don't want love
Never needed it
You took my life
And you took my soul
And you threw it all away

I only wanted love
I only needed someone to hold
You were there for me
Never cut you out
And put you under me.

And you, I'd never take"

While I haven't seen much of your work (I've been busy lately) I must say that I was very impressed with what I have seen. Your thoughts were expressed so well. And as for the situation...Don't go looking for love, it'll only end in heart break, let love come to you, it won't end as quickly. Keep up the good work and I look forward to reading more!

Hey* I don't think i've ever read any of your work. My have I been missing out! I loved this, and i really liked the first verse. Ya know, this would make an awesome song. Ever thought of putting it with music? It'd be awesome. Just has that special touch. KEep writing because this was awesome*
