Another Chance
Blind to what his heart couldn't see;
your love was hard to accept.
And thus, he ignored your plea;
something you did not expect.
Rejection leaves you upset
as tears douse passion's flame.
And your heart fills with regret;
conjuring feelings of shame.
And your lonely, tortured soul
learns love loathes to compromise.
But unrequited love's toll;
is that desire never dies.
Sorrow suppresses a tear
as innocence questions fate.
And accompanied by fear;
you sift the ashes of hate.
Your dreams get slowly replaced;
giving you another chance.
And yesterdays get erased;
invoking time's magic trance.
