Battlefield

When your love is not enough
I try to reach for more
Like searching an abandoned field
Damaged by a war

But weaponless we would fight
When no one calls a truce
And hurting we both feel the pain
Emotional abuse

No one wins when we break
When tears begin to flow
When our words hurt so much more
Than firing rounds of ammo

And wounded we both walk away
With scars that can't be seen
The only thing that seems a cure
Our distance in between

Neither of us proud no more
Nor ever were we brave
Determined we won't turn around
To see a white flag wave
