Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
No one can do it for you.

An uphill climb.

by DALLAS01

Love's graveled path with multiple traps
Hinders me from the very start--
A chain of trust with a broken clasp
Is knotted round your broken heart;

Deception hides its ugly head
Beneath sheets on your empty bed--
The memory of love gone wrong,
Plays lyrics lost in fading song;

The essence of a once damaged soul
Struggles with the courage to rise-
Beyond the depths of the blackest hole
Where it may seek its own demise;

The likelihood of love's success
Relies now in the truth undressed,
Decision dwells not in my realm--
For you alone are at the helm.
