Green Eyes

Green eyes Crying tears of pain Not those physical But those of lost love Deep inside Love continues to beat For a hopeless soul Who has gone And left Leaving one disenchanted Disillusioned And desperate for The lost love Loving the illusion Of a person That would return The love back But now is no longer Participating in the exchange Of each other’s love It’s one sided now And painful Heartache rules one’s life And nothing will separate One’s love For the other Ever

Dear Russell, we all have been through similar situations. The heart though will keep beating no matter if it suffers or if it is joyous! Well written filled with love and anticipation. Green eyes or blue the same the pain! Great work!
