Love Who?

I can’t see amidst the darkness Can’t make out the figure standing before me My mentality has been damaged Yet, I manage But why? Must I continue? So many times have I felt the urge The urge to cry Only they would not flow They remain trapped inside Just as the feelings that I feel If only the ears can be set free But who would want to do that? If no one even wants to speak to me, Who would dare come close enough to free my tears? What am I afraid of? Could it be rejection, Or would it be pain? There is only one who could bring the relief that I need We have met before, but briefly Each encounter we had was cut short It was some time ago So my heart doesn’t remember her Neither does my soul I tried to jog their memory, But they only drew blanks I told them she was the only one to make me happy And that her name was Love My heart and soul both responded Love Who?
