Stolen Promise
I have been within touching distance, you nearly stole my heart,
but there was always something that got in the way,
and started pulling us apart.
Too many broken promises of a future I could never see,
all I wanted was to love someone and for someone to truley love me.
Did I hold you far too tightly?
did I make you walk away?
always into the arms of another
there was nothing I could say.
A piece of me was torn away each time that we parted,
I had to shut you out to numb the pain that left me broken hearted
Have I become too frozen? I dont let no-one in,
I know I am scarred and broken, but have I let sadness win?
I still remember the joy I felt when I let love enter my heart,
if I could hold onto that feeling, it might be a very good start,
I know I want to love again and share this love I feel,
with a little love and patience, my heart can begin to heal.
