I Do Not Want To Love Again
I do not want to love again, I do not dare to dream.
To have someone to love me, is not in the cards it seems.
I do not want to love again, I don't think that I dare.
I need to harden up my heart and somehow not to care.
I do not want to love again, or feel a tender kiss.
Perhaps someday I will forget that they even exist.
I do not want to love again, or be wrapped in strong arms.
I need to somehow not succumb to sweet, smooth talking charms.
I do not want to love again, caught up in love's embrace,
nor do I want to feel the bliss of which I had a taste.
I do not want to love again, swept up within a smile,
nor do I want to slowly drown, in eyes that do beguile.
I do not want to love again, to let my feelings show,
I don't want to feel the magic, that would set me all aglow.
I do not want to love again, and look upon a face
of someone who's lovemaking took me to another place.
I do not want to love again, for I know that when I sleep,
I'd want to tuck a piece of you within my heart to keep.
I do not want to love again, and whisper in an ear.
I do not want to say those words for anyone to hear.
