A Love Lost
What gives life a meaning? Love
Acceptance for who you are
To be held close to one's heart
Treasured for one's self alone
I want to hold on dearly to a love
One that's mine but you deceived me
Played me like a fool, broke my heart
Forgiveness is in me to give willingly
But I can't forget the pain of betrayal
The sense of loss and worthlessness
That you instilled in my heart.
The feelings of aloneness is mine
Weary from my time with you
Heavy hearted and down trodden
I want to know the love of a good soul
One that doesn't fade as the new is gone.
My heart is broken and I cry for what never
was
I want to mend and grow in love, pure love
To be someone's treasure beyond
measure
One who thinks nothing of the big things
When the little things matter most of all
For a love lost is no love at all to me
What is so lacking in me and my heart
That no one can love me for me
I don't want to be treated like a queen
I want to be treated like the love of one's
life
Do you not see what you have done to me
Do you even care that you broke my heart
Hurt me beyond reason and rhyme.
I must be evil for no one to want to love
me
Should I just give up and live alone,
unloved
You knocked the wind out of my sail
Left me breathless in bewilderment
I don't want to go on alone like this
It hurts to my very being and core
AM I doomed to remain unloved
A love lost is no love at all thru out time
