It can make you bleed. Just from the need.

I had a bad love,
I mean I loved him, bad...
But he didn't notice.
Man it made me sad.
It was torture. Torture and more.
To be ignored, by the man you adore.

It hurts. It hurts so

Like a slug. From a chainmail glove.
Bad Love

It can make you bleed. Just from the need.

He was a senior guy.
I was a freshman.
He made me want to die.
He had red hair
Like the sun did rise.
He was gorgeous, he nearly hurt my eyes.

*guitar rip*
It hurts. It hurts so
Bad Love
*guitar rip*
Like a slug. From a chainmail glove.

Everyday, up the sun came .
Everyday the sun did rise.
Then bus came, just the same.
I was the first pick up, surprise
I had to wait for the sixth stop
Where my heart did drop.
Bad Love

It hurts. It hurts so

He had a brother.
They shared a seat
With each other
I looked at my feet.
Every day, just the same.
Ever knowing, he didn't know my name.

It hurts. It hurts so
Bad Love

I've been married.
Since 1982.
Happily married.
So what can I do?
But explain bad love, and how
That bad love, even hurts right now.

A year of sorrow, rejection, pain
A year of feeling, like I'd go insane.
A year of trying, to speak and fail,
A year of being wan and pale....
I but have to say here, there was irony,
Cause the guy I married, felt that way about me....
Bad Love
*guitar rip*
It hurts. It hurts so
Bad Love
*guitar rip*
Like a slug. From a chainmail glove.
Bad Love
*guitar rip*
It can make you bleed. Just from the need.
Bad. Love.
*guitar rip*

Ms Duck:
When I was but a pretty chile
tossed all in frilly pink
my mama came and sat awhile
said with a kiss an wink
she sang
all love is gods love
there aint no shame
shined down from up above
all love is the same
I broke my heart
on my first pretty boy
learned of my part
with a vibratin toy
I heard her sing
all love is gods love
there aint no shame
shined down from up above
all love is the same
ran wild in high school
kissed my first saucy girl
had a drink, lost my cool
danced with two a twirl
heard her sing
all love is gods love
there aint no shame
shined down from up above
all love is the same
Ive pet a wild beast
starred in my own stag blue
main course at feast
learned poetry an high coup
heard her sing
all love is gods love
there aint no shame
shined down from up above
all love is the same
Now here i rest
writ on prison page
as teacher i was best
he was underage
heard her sing
all love is gods love
there aint no shame
shined down from up above
all love is the same

Brava! Brava! *hugs* that was great.

(click to show/hide)Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
I tried, I tried to make her quit all those cigarettes
But nothing worked, I must have shirked and I have regrets.
I hid the packs, I made red lines, halfway down
I labeled them as poison, I badgered with a frown.
But she still died of cancer. Cancer everywhere.
My efforts were too clumsy to make her care.
Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
The turtles up at Kingman Park had nowhere to flee.
Turtles move so very slow, and they relied on me.
But biologists are costly, and environmental causes
Fall on deaf governmental ears, they bull doze without pause.
Now where once stood Kingman Park a highway
Blazes through, the park is gone forever and the turtles too.
Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
I've campaigned for mother earth, since I was a child.
Doing all the right things, when other kids ran wild.
Recycling, conserving, unswerving in my quest
Riding on a bicycle or walking, as you've guessed.
Reminding folks our planet is the only one we've got.
The oil and coal are burning still, the environment is shot.
Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
I love my sons, my darling ones, and want for them the best
I worked until I could no more, to gather their behest.
I wish to pay for college, for educational trips
For all the things which would give them benefits.
But I barely pay my bills now, and they both have to work
I've saved up no inheritance, and their cousins like to smirk.
Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
My love's vision is fading. He works hard as can be
When he comes home, he has to care for me.
He does it uncomplaining, he does it with a grin,
and yet I can't help feeling I've disappointed him.
It should have been our turn, to have fun at this age,
But my health faltered and my guilt I can't assuage.
Failed. I've failed those things I love. No matter how I tied.
And when you fail the things you love, you shrivel up inside.
Edited to add the spoiler tag, not because of spoilers, but because the poem is depressing.
