Lover's keeper

As I lay in wait My heart aches For the love that I have lost For the love that I must find For I shall have no love left to give If I do not find, the love that I let slip- Far far away, On the other side Where it surely is not greener Why have I, Let a piece of my love die? Under the almond tree, where secrets were shared And words were coerced from my lips now pursed in bitterness, Left there by the love That I must find Who shall I give this lost love to? once it is not returned to its owner Who shall now bear the responsibility of a Lover's keeper I will not let another piece die Else, surely, I will too.
