Untitled

How do I convey What I mean to say To a heart that cries Yet i'm mesmerised No more can I hide The affection inside A body so weak Who's conscience is meek What would I give A heart that forgives The hand of a lover I may yet discover It seems such a waste To lose an embrace I pay now the cost For what's foolishly lost A memory that's passed In time it might last Like a beat in a heart Of a body apart I wonder her thought And do what I ought To savour a kiss That I sorely miss It didn't last long And now that she's gone I await her return For a touch I yearn Now I grow tired From one time inspired Left only to dream Of love I have seen A soul that is pure Of this I am sure That never again I'll suffer in vain So now when I meet Her beauty so sweet I'll choke on my breath For that which I left And now I decide To swallow my pride And remember her taste Forget not in haste I meant not to break A heart by mistake In time I intend For this heart to mend It's this that I say Should love ebb away I fear i'll not find A lover so kind These words that I write Mean nothing this night For I can't express This beat in my chest And when it is read This verse in my head Upset not your eyes With tears that I cry So now when it rains I'll think once again I'll take to the grave The joy that she gave I'd like now to state That as my heart breaks I hope she'll forgive So I may still live
