The dark side of the moon

This one's for the broken-hearted,
Everyone who's torn apart and
Are feeling like they can't go on,
Here it is, the anti-love song,

No more fake "I love you too's",
No more searching for the truths,
No more mirrors meeting fists,
I'll die if I get one more kiss,

So you're happy, good for you,
So you're sad, I've been there too,
But keep you're love away from me,
I've had enough, why can't you see?

No more broken hearts and dreams,
No more things to make me scream,
No more playing with my heart,
I should've said no from the start,

********************************************
Well, I've broken one of my own rules by posting this. I don't post things that I'm not entirely happy with, and this is one of them. I liked the basic idea, but I feel that my mediocre lyrical skill has ruined it. *shrugs* Could just be me being too critical and condescending towards myself, but I don't know.

"I hide myself behind them,
I put them on every day,
If you look you'll find them,
The masks I use to hide the pain"

I like the idea of it. but I think it could be improved upon. I like that...anti-love. pretended love has got to be the silliest thing.
you have something here.
definitely.

I thought it was a good idea, but I just couldn't see it through to fruition. I consider this to be my worst submission yet. Thanks for commenting Lexy, I wish it were better.

I liked it, personally. Maybe because it suits my mood so well. Keep it up, this one is for the library.

Thanks for your compliment. When I got the idea for this, I was totally fed up with love; and for a while, life as well. Will to live aside, there was a lot of pain that I was trying to convey. It's one thing to love somebody who doesn't love you, but it's an entirely other torture to have that person stab you in the back and break your heart.

this is definitly not mediocre.... depending on the style i would probably listen to this al day long.. you have got talent and if you consider this to be your worst i would love to read your best...
dont be fed up with life just because of someone.... no one is worth you ending your life, yes you will hurt for a while but it passes and makes you a stronger person so you can deal with whwat your life has to offer you later on....

think about this
to love is to risk rejection
to live is to risk dying
to hope is to risk despair
to try is to risk failure

only those who risk all they cannot keep are ever truly free

live life as if your going to die tomorow....... but love as if your going to live forever......

Thanks for the words of encouragement Aussie. It's nice to know that no matter how dark things may get, there's always somebody out there to help you find your way.

You said you'd like to read my best if this was my worst, well I think my newest piece may be the best yet.
