The Void

I had once believed it was gone
But I was ever so wrong
How dumb of me to think 
I could fill it.................

I hurts so deeply now
And the tears burn hot
As they stream down
One at a time
I had only hoped to be
Happy.................

To enjoy life
I wished to share it
To love 
Family and friends
Along with Her
How foolish.............

To think that way
For it will never matter
She will never love me
I know this..................

And it kills me so much
And the hole in my heart grows bigger
That void that consumes
Me.........

I have lost my chance
I tried by very best
And it wasn't good enough
Not even close
That is what hurts the most.......
