My
Love Remains
When
for the first time I realized
My heart longs for you, only you
I knew it was love from the heart
Along with that came the knowledge
You will never be mine, never
For by then I knew the little something
That you had not told everyone
~*~
Yes, your heart is with some one else
Some one who loved and left
The one who showed you what
True and undying love is all about
The wounds and scars he had left
Has not healed and you still cried
Your soul whispering his name
~*~
This betrayal had made you wild
To escape the pain and the tears
You were and still are running wild
Trust has left you and you are scared
To trust another again and bare your soul
To love another has become taboo
What if...., the if stood out, daunting
~*~
Knowing all this, my love for you stays
Warm and ardent, always thinking of you
You went out of the way to force me
Hate you and leave you alone for good
Leave you alone I did, hate you, I could not
Even your assurance of never loving me
If I am the last man left, no deterrent
~*~
You are now staying away from me
Not even letting me know if you care
Whether I am still alive or dead and gone
Skillfully you veil your true feelings
Me, I am not skilful and I ache
Longing for you, loving you in spite of
All the hurt and pain you have inflicted
~*~
On the side I wait, hope dead and yet alive
Love still bursting within me, only for you
I watch as you go your own wild ways
Unmindful of the pain and hurt it leaves
I see the way you are used and thrown
Leaving you alone and betrayed time and again
I can’t help but cry for your folly
