Lost Heart

A love adorn
Hatred skims the wall
A heart forlorn
And angels fall.

As days wear on, 
Time passes by
A love so worn
Yet unable to travel
Over torturous miles ahead.

A heart scarred by hurt,
A love torn from trust,
Two hearts once won,
Are now only a loss
As one walks on
The other walks away

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.
