In so many ways
I’ve been smitten,
I’ve been felled by beauty
In beauty I’m reborn
I’m amazed yet crippled
Like venom, it spreads
A venom like this, I can’t escape
In my heart, I’m paralyzed.
In my head
Many reasons swim by,
They talk about love
They spoke of dreams untouched
All my senses I’ve lost
All my life, I’ve been drowning
But if love is this addictive
Who needs hate
Help me breathe
Let my heart be free.
Over and over again, I’ve searched
I searched for truth amidst lies,
The truth painted in white
Lies painted black
Love is truth
Hate begets lies
Which way is true
My heart is conflicted
Crossroads are all I see
Where do I go
Where am I supposed to be
Love, please guide me.
