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
