Love is a delicate thing,
Something that very few people can bring.
Knowing that someone cares,
It's the best thing to have when no one's there.

Someone to hold,
Being there for you, being bold.
Saying you love them too,
Even if it was too good to be true.

When they leave,
They don't see the pain you grieve.
Blood dripping into a puddle onto the floor,
All behind closed doors.

They love you more than the entire world,
You say it's more than they should.
They hold you when you cry,
Waiting for the tears to stop,
Waiting for the tears to dry.

Being alone together,
You both wish it could last forever.
They were there when you both were young,
Singing the songs that have already been sung.

Love can last so long,
Being shown in the form of a song.
Setting a spark off at the start,
It becomes a true work of art.

Love can end in the blink of an eye,
Not even ending with a goodbye.
It only ends with a scream,
Taking a life without a rip in the seams.
