Outburst of the Heart

When I turned around, My back towards the sun, The sun did not go away, It remained there for everyone, Just like a center stage! It was the impetus, I knew this well, My courage and my transport That kept alive! This love for long felt, Except time-it seemed too short... From comfort you changed to bitterness And it was strange to understand That the same tokens of tenderness Would leave you with a clenched hand... I grew cold, you openly claimed And I did not ask you, I maintained, When left alone with no choice But forever erase, The unspoken words from my mind And the happy smile from my face... Communication was all in vain And sadly everything was tore apart, For your departure, I was not to be blamed When you betrayed your own heart... If you think my heart is empty-think again!
