Love Lost

I saw a light,

and even from a distance

It shined so bright,

I had to be persistant.

Though she was blinding

Held in place, in brilliant splendor

The sight of her binding

I could not look away from her.

She needed nothing to be maintained

What could I possibly portray,

To something so self sustained

that, her, I would never betray.

I know we're apart

And its unbearably difficult

But if you listen to my heart

I think you'll hear the result.

That I don't want you to leave

No, never again

But we can't be naive.

I'll see you again, even if I don't know when.
