Love is a Battlefield

by Bugg   Jul 31, 2008


Love is a battlefield
And my heart is at war.
I love you, but I can't
I just don't know anymore.

One one hand,
You love me so much.
Your kisses are impeccable
And I shudder at your touch.

You're the light in my eyes,
The weakness in my knees
The bells in my laugh.
Your sole purpose: to tease.

And on the other hand,
Your heart belongs to another.
The way you look at her,
It makes me feel smothered.

She is everything to you,
While you're always on my mind.
My only dream in life,
Is that our hearts become intertwined.

But I know it can't happen,
It's a dream that won't come true.
You'll just be a memory,
It hurts knowing I'll never fully have you...

    `I loved the title, that's a very common phrase.. and I'm interested to see how you`re going to use it.

    "Love is a battlefield
    And my heart is at war.
    I love you, but I can't
    I just don't know anymore."
    `Oh, I sure loved this. Your heart is at war. It's a constant battle for sure. I know how one's mind and heart battle back and forth. It sure causes confusion.

    "One one hand,
    You love me so much.
    Your kisses are impeccable
    And I shudder at your touch."
    `Great word choice -impeccable. I've literally never heard of that word before. Lol.
    `Shudder was a wonderful word too. :]

    "But I know it can't happen,
    It's a dream that won't come true."
    `Aww, live with optimism girly, you never know what may come true in life.

    Overall, a wonderful write. I have never been through the situation that you are, but I love how you used the title her. Love is like a Battlefield, it is a constant battle that is never-ending. You expressed this poem very well. I could see cleary where you were coming from. Great work. 5/5.

    Very captivating read, your rhythm and flow allowed me to read the poem with such ease that I never had to stop or retrace any words in the process. A very well known and subject, and easy to relate to for many people out there I am sure. I loved the title, I thought it suited the poems theme well. Great work.
