Unfound Love

Another piece of work depicting some recent turmoils.

 

Unfound Love

7/26/2008

 

Quietly I walk the night

No one by my side

All my feelings I recite

Not a break in my stride

 

“I wish you were here,” I tell the air

“How I need your love

Perhaps if I repeat my prayer

He will listen from above”

 

The scent of flowers fills the breeze

Your perfume I could taste

Leaves would sway on their trees

The smell had been replaced

 

My knees gave in; I hit the floor

No more of this I could take

“Oh please my God, I do implore

Not another night of ache!”

 

Love that’s lost at least can share

Memories that passed

Perhaps even you can repair

If your love can last

 

The love I need has not yet been

It’s nothing except dreams

My hopes begin to stretch too thin

Another night, it seems

 

Once again I repeat

“Soon will come the day

With her help I’ll be complete

And wash this pain away

 

And then a tear rolls down my face

I realize what’s true

Every day’s this same disgrace

And the pain begins anew
