Thwarted Love

How many tears the heart cries

while piece by piece it slowly dies

is a rather recent discovery of mine

while I long and yearn and pine.

You have touched me deep inside

where there is no place for me to hide

from the feelings which envelop me

without any hope that they could ever be.

I wish that I could turn back time

to a date and place before this rhyme,

where you and I have never met,

to a time I would not need to forget.

But time has passed with no return

and how to survive, Ill have to learn.
