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's filled with regret
conjuring feelings of shame.
But unrequited love's toll
is that desire seldom dies.
And a lonely, tortured soul
learns love loathes to compromise.
Sorrow suppresses a tear,
but innocence still taunts fate.
And accompanied by fear,
you sift through ashes of hate.
Your dreams are slowly replaced,
evoking time's magic trance.
And yesterdays are erased;
giving love another chance.
