Ireland's OWN Poetry and Prose

people like you get lost in the world
—by conghalaigh

i think people like you get lost in the world
you desire real love
and in the process get trampled
it sucks
and people get so busy trying to possess you they forget
we should never posses each other, but
a lover will stay as long as she is loved
not when she is grasped at like a property
but then i may be projecting me thoughts onto you
you just seem too sensitive
to accept certain behaviors from people
which makes you easily hurt
but so much more true to the quest to real love and beauty
so even though you get hurt more
what you desire is right
and at least you keep trying.
