Ex Love

Why do we bother, to try so hard?
Too be the one, not just good in bed
Why can’t we sleep, these endless nights?
What do we fear, whilst where still alive
To stay awake and dream all day
To fall in love yet get led astray
We wake up cold in this shallow bed
To think of nothing but our beloved ex
Her hair in her eyes, the one lonely streak
Her glittering eye’s that come alive in the street
To hold her close and never let her go
To be the one for her, our life’s we shall grow
Too think no more, and sleep heavy nights
To know somebody is there to hold you through tough times
We cannot leave this fight behind
We care too much to look away blind
Someday will come, we won’t be alone
Someday is close, till then soldier on
