Unrequited Love -- Famous Last Line

Wandering my maze of memories In search of yesteryear The spark she struck within my heart Still burns in spite of tears Hand in hand we walked the halls Young love boldly displayed The classes we shared The moments we snared Our two hearts swept away That Saturday picnic in the spring 'Neath the canopy of juniper trees Our first forbidden lovers' touch No other eyes could see Innocence lost in a tender embrace For us there was no doubt Time stood still the fire burned hot The breeze could not put out It must have angered the powers that be Our love was unrequited A storm blew in the rain put out The flame which we'd ignited Our love was blind Fate was unkind A love not meant to be That memory branded in my mind How cruel love was to me _____________________________ How cruel love was to me A future I could not see My heart so tender and true Would heal but forever be blue As days turned into years More dreams would drown in tears How little did I know, how quick love turns cold So elusive and hard to hold Yet over and over again Sparks would ignite in the wind Flames would rise and fall The rains, drenching them all Each time a lesson was learned Leave scars from all of the burns Then fate would intervene Two hearts would once again dream I felt the wind in my face It was time for love's final disgrace Then all of my love was gone I was left all on my own I would not try again Because love is not my friend Just spend my time at ease With my maze of sad memories by Daniel Turner
