What Chance My Love

What chance my love
What chance
When you heed not my call?
Is yours not a listening heart...
Does it not feel or care
That I am wrought with anguished pain and
Silent tears that steal my breath
and light hearted days.
What chance?
Set me free
So I can go back to where I used to be
Dancing in sun light
And singing my glad song
And can hear again
When someone else
Says
Hello!

Richard, Thank you for your concern...This is one of my favorite poems though not written for or about me. I actually wrote it for a friend, by request, to give to someone she loved who was not returning her affection. It is a very old poem written a long time ago. I do appreciate your comment. Cynthia
