just what it is.......


Chasing Love

around a circle like a ring
a childish song you sing
heartache is what you bring
chasing love

slide it on when you're home
take it off when you're gone
leave me alone
chasing love

seek out a new thrill
was always your will
I'm taking a new pill
chasing love

a flight to a park
a whore in the dark
reality is so stark
chasing love

too many lies you told
all so fluidly bold
my heart has gone cold
chasing love

I walked out that door
stronger than ever before
I won't hurt anymore
chasing love

This is definitely one of your greatest poems! The rythm is perfect, to end every stanza with chasing love, is brilliant!

I think I love you!

Besides being a great poem in word and rhythm, it is intelligent. It shows great wisdom. And it shows that it has come at a cost. It's just great all around. One of your best.

Beautiful in rhythm, true in content, and please, somebody just has to make a song out of this great text!

This one is great !!! Chasing love is a horrble thing to do when everything isnt going the way you want it to go, even when you have the love sometimes...
Thanks for this lovely and strong and a bit angry poem!!!
