Homeless Heart

Love has always been the air I breathed

Love was the only reality I always believed

Love was the only reason, for which I lived

Love was simply born for you and me

Your heart was where I thought I could always be

And every breath, every touch, every kiss, were the vigor

That drove me in a sassy world

Where I walked blindly towards a blurry road

With so many closed doors

But at the moment when your light switched on in my eyes

And your flames heated up my veins

And your rays of hope blossomed in my mind

You're gone but I'm still standing here hopeless

You dodged but I'm still sticking around heartless

The core of you is completely healed but mine is frightfully homeless

That soul I used to call love, has become nameless

And all the colors I stole from the rainbow,

 Has rubbed away in the darkness

Please remember the passion we shared

Plights we went through but we always came out alive

Those shooting stars we adopted

The plans we collected

All the tears we shed to stay together

How did you easily turn your back on them

As if nothing even existed?

In case you're feeling a dismal emptiness where you are

Come and find us where you left us

 ‘Cause with you my whole realm is fearless

Far from you, my nights are all dreamless

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
