You say you love me

[Foetica]

You say you love me
I love you too
But I don’t understand how you can love me
I hate me more than you can know
People say I’m strong
I hate that because I know how weak I am
I know how I cling to that mask
To the appearance of strength
I tell you I’m broken
You tell me I’m not
Yet you just don’t know
How deep the hurt goes
That at times all I can feel
Is that pain buried deep within
That at times I need to hurt somewhere else
Just to know that I can feel something else
You say you love me
Yet how can you love
What you can’t understand
How can you love
What I can’t stand
I don’t understand
But Know that I love you too

Alright I know my stuff been a bit more upbeat as of late but here’s a return to the dark on this one.

@ClaireSheppard How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

@ClaireSheppard From broken shells come birds of paradise Claire. Every brilliant light in the night sky comes from a star that collapsed in on itself

@ClaireSheppard The mind doesn't always grasp what the heart knows very well. On so many levels, and in so many ways, this is at the same time tragic, and majik :two_hearts:

@Wicked_ Did you know that I think your heart is the most beautiful heart
and that the sound it makes is more astonishing than any symphony I will ever hear
Did you know that I think your eyes say more than any words I could ever write
and that the stories behind them are what people have fallen in love with the most

@Cosmic_Lady that’s beautiful and I appreciate your words.
