HAV U EVA
by Neo Blaqness
Have you ever
wanted
to believe
so much
that you deceive
your mind
into thinking
you have touched
something
that really
isn’t there
Have you ever
hoped
beyond what’s real
that you have
made your heart
start to feel
love from someone
who really
does not care
Have you ever
been there
Have you ever
longed so hard
for someone
to hold
that you feel
warmth despite
the coldness
of their arms
around you
and yet
despite the truth
you substitute
all you have
inside
to make up
for the love denied
from all
the people
in your life
girlfriend
boyfriend
husband
wife
this is
no way
to live
but then
you know that
already
how much of you
will you keep
betting
will be left
when you
have nothing
else
to give
