Fifth Place

"The heart was made to be broken." Oscar Wilde, Poet My inspiration is Glenn Hughes and his song called Why Don't You stay from his album, From Now On. I am thinking of you and memories haunt me. I've tried hard to forget you. And I've heard you moved on without looking back. You have found another to love and I've been crying every day. Oh, here's a nice picture of us that is breaking my heart and soul. It won't go away! Don't you think of me just a little, love? Because I think of you each moment. Because I love you still and I'm calling you to ask won't you come back to me ? do not stay away come from where you are my love ... like a bird flying Let's just love each other, because we've been through so much, because life is a struggle sweetheart. My heart is broken and yours is too. I'm saying I love you, so won't you give it a chance with me. Baby, just take a step to true love. Let's make this work please, because I am nothing without you darling. Don't let our love slip away. Don't let our love slip away. let us be lovers as I am lost without you ... fly home like a bird
