Fear of Love -

We are all meant to be someone,

We are all meant to feel something,

But we'd all rather be the same.

Our feelings colide with our emotions,

We fall in love with our expectations,

And get angry and frustrated when our expectations aren't met.

How do we fall in love with this picture perfect,

Which solely excists in our mind?

How come it is so hard to let life take it's own course?

Why do we try so hard to control it?

We think we know what others feel,

We think we can see life through their eyes

Or we think we can walk in their shoes.

We believe that whatever we've been through,

Is harder and tougher.

That whatever we do is better,

Whatever we believe is firmer,

How come we are designed this way?

Programmed by the masses instead of by nature,

Why are we scared of pain and afraid of getting hurt,

How come we feel embarrased to cry, show our true emotions?

When in this life, between being born and growing up,

Where we thought to fear love?
