On A Journey To The Unknown

0 posted 2001-10-10 09:24 PM


You think you know me, but you don't
You never stuck around long enough
The feelings I have you are unware
About them you never wanted to hear

You think, that I am being mean
I only give what you give to me
You say you love me, with words
Love for me, you never do show

I always cooked and cleaned for you
Then I waited for you to come home
But from work you always did go
Straight to your moms right after work

It had become real clear for me to see
That your mom you couldn't live without
It was me, that you didn't really need
To you I was just some one you could hurt

My love for you was always so strong
But, all you did was keep hurting me
I have been down that road before
Of someone always wanting to hurt me

All of the doors that went to my heart
I had to close so tight, once more
And I threw away all of the keys
So no one can ever get in, again

The funny thing is, that when you least expect it, you will stumble over those keys to your heart, and give them away again. And that's a positive.

A sad past you paint Sue ... although you feel this way now ... someone may come along with a key that fits, regardless

Quite a sad piece.
No worries though. A key is only one way to open a locked door.  
Nicely written.

Very well expressed, this is how I am now when it comes to love  

Take care,
