Once my heart was full of hope,
But now it lies in ashes.
The fire of love that once burned bright,
Now nothing but forgotten flashes.
I thought our love was unbreakable,
A bond that could not be severed.
But now I'm left with a heartache,
My love for you forever treasured.
The memories of your touch,
Still linger in my mind.
But now they bring me pain,
Love of you, I cannot find.
I try to move on from the past,
And start a brand new day.
But the thought of you not being there,
Will always stay.
I thought our love was forever,
But forever isn't true.
Now I am left here alone,
My heartache is all because of you
I hurt everyday because I loved
But should love heart? Must it be this hard?
I give up trying to understand
The ways of love
My heartache will not cease
Because I understand love
Neither will I be free from the pain
Of watching you walk out the door
For truly, who can ever really understand
The ways of love?
Maybe it is in the msytery
That we truly appreciate love
The 'not knowing how it ends'
The feelings of doubt and fear
Maybe these make love just what it is
Fr truly, would we ever love is we knew
How it would end?
Would love be everything it is
If we had all the lessons before the journey?
I am learning to appreciate the journey of love
To understand that it is in the pain;
In the highs and lows that I truly learn
The beauty of love, its very essence
So maybe I will hope again
To love and be loved
