so where is the elusive love I am told I can find
like the songs on the radio tell me
This person I am meant to be with is supposedly somewhere
yet no matter where I turn I can only see you
Love isn't supposed to make you feel broken
over and over again, but thats all I know
a constant feeling of failure to meet the expectations
never being enough for that person who's supposedly my completion
so where are the roses, chocolates and happy smiles
my mother tries to explain to me I should, will have
these small mementos that are supposed to hold meanings of love
that are always left shattered on the floor or boxed away with my shame
Love isn't supposed to cause tears after every interaction
leaving me to feel emotionally battered because im not enough
again and again told Im not worth it just not in so many words
every action tears me apart and i remember why i never came back the last time
so where is the person to hold me tight at night when the world closes in on me
this elusive figure that should mend my hurts, sarrows and share my joys
when will I be a good enough reason to be happpy
why can't you disappear from my heart so these supposedly's become reality
