Make believe

Make believe
It is better to make believe a thousand lives
Than to live one life without love
You might feel trapped
Attached at the hip
But it is better to be attached
than to be cut loose and dispatched into a world where love avoids your grasp

Screaming at the night sky
Waiting to die In the dark alone,
Love more importantly ,a heart needs a home

If it cannot find a home

Then homeless it will sit in a pit Of despair
And people will look on stare and laugh and sneer with contempt
And you will never feel exempt
And you will only be a fraction of the person you could be
Without being held and treasured as a lover
And you will never uncover the love you have inside

Until you have a lover with which to share your love with.
