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,
till tears douse passion's flame.
And your heart fills with regret;
conjuring feelings of shame.
And your heart, and tortured soul,
learns love loathes to compromise.
But unrequited love's toll,
is that desire: never dies.
Sorrow suppresses a tear
sifting through ashes of hate.
And accompanied by fear,
innocence questions its fate.
Yet slowly, dreams get replaced,
giving love another chance.
And yesterdays are erased;
invoking time's magic trance.
