Found and Lost

An entire life time they spent,
looking waiting for a moment of that.
A quarter into mine i found,
hearing tasting the tears in which I've drowned.
Love has not eyes for gender, oh i am but blind.
Culture thrives on labels, oh what troublesome vines.

Sweet Bitterness

Sweet is all the undeniable love, that fate has lavished unto me.
A soulmate was found in your eyes, you are & always will be my destiny.

Bitter is the agonizing torture i feel, knowing our destiny wont play out.
You linger heavy in my heart and soul, but you, i'm forced to now live without.

Sweet is the sound of your voice and the bright smile always on your face.
Bitter is knowing its not for me anymore for your reasons, i've been replaced.

The bitter sweetness and irony of it all, rips my broken heart completely into two.
One half for the bitterness of letting you go, one half for the sweetness of loving you still.
