Everyone is going to hurt you
So who's worth the pain?
The problem with that is
It's driving me insane
You're worth all my smiles
You're worth all my tears
You're worth all the pleasures
And yet still all the fears
I don't know how to love you
When you don't care for me
This unrequited love
Stings like a bee
I want to have you here now
To take and hold me tight
To wake up from this nightmare
And have everything alright
But I haven't woken up
And you haven't come to call
This depression that I have
Is just causing me to fall
Fall into such darkness
Where I may just go insane
But the thing about you is
You're worth all the pain

"Everyone is going to hurt you, you just have to decide who's worth the pain"
Love it.

Yeah just a little emotion oozed out in this one, lol. I think it works really well and explains your emotions nicely.

Love and hurt are always strong feelings and in my experience that usually carries over onto paper as well. You did a nice job of bringing that feelings as well as some of the confusion to life in this write.
