Forever Lost

My heart breaks like the waves against the rocks; Is this where love ends and emotions take over? I see you drift away, I reach out, But in vain........ The image of you that I had moulded into my future torments me as I toss it to and fro. Should I keep it? Or should I let it go? Oh! If only someone could set me free? But could I trust them, as I did you? I fear not; For the repetition might bring me to an end. So this part of me I lay to rest, And alone..... I shall be. I must go, But I love you so. Is it that time to say goodbye? I suppose........ © 2000

STuck between saying goodbye or never redo this kind of love again. Something I am sure many must face! Good title for this one. I discovered how to go all the way back to the VERY beginning of a poet's poetry (you have to click on the person's name and then "view all poetry" ) I saw that I had already commented on your very first. WAs this your second?
