The Lost Cause

Its no doubt you gave your all
But in love even the greatest may fall
For you and I are a strange specie
And priceless at times is the same as free
You Watch your love as it goes to waste
And once sweet kisses leave a sour taste
You're welled up with words you cannot say
It drowns your heart each passing day
Its never enough though you play your part
As your rib cages trap your broken heart
A lost cause I am and cannot stay
Your parents and guardians would cast away
You deceive yourself your choice is right
But curse and cry on sleepless nights
I'm not your type but a compromise
You thread blindly in love with open eyes
Out of pity I long for you
My conditional affection to you is true
I push you far but you rebound
I bruised your soul but you abound
In my endless absence you're still around
You must first be lost before you're found
You know I'll leave but you care to try
I pluck your wings but you dare to fly
Your faith in me covers my flaws
But I am still a lost cause.
