Heartbroken

I like you. I like you a lot.
I always have from the start.
You're the most beautiful thing I have ever seen -
An absolute work of art.

I like to sweep away that fringe,
Unlock your crystal blue eyes
And caress your rough masculine skin...
I like to stroke your cheek,
Look deep into those eyes
And explore what lies within.

You're as strong as can be, I can easily see
As you invite me into those arms...
We fold into each other and gently brush lips,
The softness, oh how it calms.

I'm safe with you, I know this is true,
But something makes me withdraw.
We've been together, it feels like forever
But the pain in my heart is so raw.

I like you. I like you a lot.
I always have from the start.
But aside from looks and few other things,
Wouldn't we be better off apart?

My heart says no yet my mind disagrees,
It says all you did was lie from the beginning,
It says if this was a race to get someone hurt
Then you'd always be the one winning.

You used not only me but yourself too,
That work of art body, undefeated
But every time I've caught you looking like a fool
You've made excuses about the way I was treated.

Those soft lips, those crystal blue eyes...
They mean nothing if your heart is not pure,
So take your pick: me, or them?
What are you waiting for?

I like you. I like you a lot.
I always have from the start.

But my love for you struggles to exist, because you've completely broken my heart.
