A Thousand Ships Afloat Today

Today I left the one I love.. I had no answers as to why, only pain and suffering from above.. I saw the ships as they set sail upon the tears that fell.. People asking why, but I could not find the answer to tell... I know in my heart I love him still... How does the mind let the heart begin to heal.. When it knows the truth that lies deep within... A love that is meant to be, I sent sailing into a tailspin... These tears I cry, this river that flows from my eyes.. I cannot hide nor can I disguise.. I see so many empty souls among the ships at sea.. Can I ever find a way to ask him to forgive me? I never took the time to see.. That his love was real, genuine for me.. I look up to the sky above.. And ask God for his help, to return to me, my one true love.. I ask for Him to guide to me, my love, my soulmate whose tears I feel and see.. upon these thousand ships floating on this lost love sea... I pray for his return to me forever to stay.. As I am afloat in this mass of tears aboard the thousand ships that are afloat today... As I'm the one who threw our love away...
