Not Enough

We are everything together that isn’t quite here or there

We meld into each other so well, from the outside all is right

On the surface the waters are calm

My heart is yours

Your love is mine

Our all is each other

Together we are more than one… we are us

But something is not right

Amiss, a link that cant be found

A puzzle that appears to be complete but is only missing just one piece

We force ourselves to see a whole

Shove the key into the wrong door and as it opens we close the page on the thing we refuse to see

It lurks behind us 

Threatens to rise up and destroy us

But we have love to guide us

Love will destroy this evil and build a fortress against it

Set its soldiers to defeat it

Love will win

Love always wins

Then why do we still not fit

Opening doors with the wrong keys

And locking away the truths of our destiny

We will stop at nothing to keep up this farce

We are meant to be

Destined to be

Designed to find each other and sink into a love so deep we drown and enjoy the pain of constant suffocation

No one knows a love this strong

It conquers all

But in the shadows truth hides

In the parts of our mind we cannot access for it knows there it will always be heard

Always be free to slowly, methodically and torturously annoy us with what we thought we had locked away

Together in love we run

As fast as we can

Away from this truth for we have love

Abundant and overflowing

But we cannot out-run it

It hits us from the front and behind

Above, below and at the sides

Truth has us trapped

How did it finally catch us and what are we to do with it

Love help us, guide us, show us the escape route

There must be a way

Denial has always worked

We’ve been so good at it

Worked so well at it

Convinced our hearts our lies were truths and let love take us beyond what has now cornered our minds

Denial will no longer work

We must face the awful truths

We know what to do but all within us compels us to refuse

We’ve been here before and know love wont sustain us to the end

But why oh why cant it

It’s supposed to be the healer of all things

Magical, all powerful

Indestructible… that is what our love has been through the years

But truths denied are truths that refuse to hide

What do you do when love isn’t enough
