Love's Victim

In my life, I remain a victim,
Wandering aimlessly in a sea of love.
To be loved is but a journey,
Riddled with emotion and promise.
For me, love is but a disaster,
Riddled with heartache and doubt.

With love, I do not doubt
That everyone is truly a victim.
True love only ends in disaster.
We too often lose ourselves to love,
Forgetting our dreams, and destroying our promise.
Our identity is lost, and so is our journey.

Before we can love, we must embark on our journey.
Be sure of yourself, with no room for doubt.
Remember your worth and your promise
And you will find, you will never be love's victim
We must embrace a kind of self love
Failure to do so, will only lead to disaster.

If you change now, good will come from disaster.
Just imagine living your lover's life, taking their journey
You are willing to do anything to keep their love.
This leads to self doubt
You are no longer your lover's significant other, but their victim
Fearing you cannot go on without their love and promise.

This you must promise.
Try and find stability amidst disaster
You don't want to be the next victim
So go ahead, embark on your journey
Have respect for yourself and do not doubt
That if you try, you will find love.

There is no way to hide from love
This I can promise
It starts with a crush, and then you start to question and doubt
Your every move to avoid embarrassment and disaster
You attempt to hold on to your own life and journey
But-long and behold, your trapped again, your love's victim.

Please do not doubt that you will find love.
You might be a victim, but promise
That when disaster strikes, you will embark on a new journey.
