Happiness lays half way
between right and wrong
But I seem to always miss
the entrance
My battle scars shall prove
it to be true

I'm unsuccessful in this
game of love
War is the only thing I
seem to be fighting

I'm one that is hard to
satisfy
And few are up to take
the challenge

Loneliness remains far
longer when you're around
But the bruises still sting across
my heart when you're gone

Choking back tears is all I have
left to do

Happiness is something I
will never truly feel*

There is not ONE person in this world that you cannot live without.

oo, I really like this one. The fist stanza really drew me in. I especially liked these lines,
"But I seem to always miss
the entrance
My battle scars shall prove
it to be true"
Great work, thanks for sharing.

But Im comforted
by the fact that I can hurt inside
all I want to
without anyone ever knowing

'But the bruises still sting across my heart when you are gone.'

That's a real good line. I feel like cursing at the stars. Love is not always a broken heart or a mended one.
