Why Love Why

My scars tell you of my pain,
My tears tell you of my rain,
My lips say never again,
My heart will never be the same.

My ears heard you say good-bye,
My mind says it's no use to try,
My soul aches for days gone by,
My spirit cries, why love why?

G'day Timothy … sometimes the answer is a million tiny pieces coming together, and sometimes a blunder that blows up the bridge over the river of regret - thanks Timothy - Lindsay
