Love Is The Enemy Poem by Fergal Dunne

Everything’s gone now
And all your heroes are dead
You don’t feel like going on
Nothings clear inside your head
Every weekends the same
Another smoke one more pill
And there’s never a cure
Just another line another ill
You keep on searching
But there’s never a remedy
When we kiss goodnight
Even love is the enemy

You walk the bruised streets
Mouth open you start to yawn
Rain and blinking lamp lights
Signal an unwelcome dawn
Another drunk in the doorway
A girls she’s just passed out
Its always going to be the same
And you want to scream and shout
I don’t belong here no more
But there is no remedy
And when we kiss goodnight
Even love is the enemy

Waiting for the change
Dreams that faded to black
No clouds with silver lining
No photos worth looking back
Before you were born
Your sentence was already passed
Never to get out of here
And yes its going to last
You know the way out
You know the remedy
But you still kiss goodnight
Believing love is the enemy
