A Reason To Believe

Let me take you to a place

Where hearts are never broken.

The love is never tainted

When the lies are never spoken.

Temptation is always lurking

As long as one can feel,

But here there are no emotions

And nothing to conceal.

So if you'd like to escape

From the pressure and the pain,

Then embrace a quiet death

And you may never be wronged again.

...Or for those who know

That the memories are worth the tears,

Then step into reality

And grow stronger through the years.

Love will never be easy,

Nor will it be fair.

But we cant stop loving short of dying,

And I can promise no comfort there.

I say to keep pushing forward

With your heart upon your sleeve

And perhaps when you least expect it

You'll find a reason to believe.
