Everytime I allow

Myself the solace

Of being withdrawn into our love

The dream of white sandy beaches

Wrapped in your embrace

Eludes me.

It is drawn away as if it never

Existed.

I am left alone

Yet again with nothing

But heartache

Why does my heart

Ache and yearn

For something that never existed.

I like this poem a lot. Its simple yet clever and gets right to the point of how you feel. This poem sounds like the reason I finally got a divorce. It's like you said, "why does my heart ache and yearn for something that never existed"...
