I am awakened, next?

many faces of goodbye
I have endured in my past
a vicious cycle of love
for what?
so we know that yes
we are stupid and insane?
a character we knew
since we allowed us to be played?
by our dark and sinister emotions?
now I sound contemptible
as though I didn't partake in the game
but you and I and the whole world knew
there is so much to be ventured
just to prove it is all the same
this falling in and out of love
just different time and place
but the rules never change
you leave, I stay
I run, you play
oh the skeptics in us
always lurking in our minds
to doubt, to always question
because the truth is
your hurt is never gone
the pain you felt in her cheating
never left you behind
and I suck all your lies
so I can live in limbo
for your retribution of those
that have hurt you

but I am awakened
I am now new again
to love and bleed no more
because I have found me
love within myself and no other
just me and my fervor
to share the world and scatter
this seed I planted in the world
because that is me, a lover
of those that are unloved

shattered and abandoned.

next?
