Will you ever love me back

In that sweet spring of our beginning, did a deeper truth begin,
A light we thought eternal, but did those dark shadows creep?
Did the promise whispered then, where does its echo sleep,
When your eyes were , once fixed on mine, now turns and looks within?
Was the cold close of our story written in the air?
Do the vows we spoke still haunt the quiet evening breeze,
Or have they scattered, like dead leaves from the trees?
Is every memory now a burden you must bear?
Tell me, when you look forward, is my face already blurred?
Does the silence where my voice was, bring you any pain?
Is forgetting me a task you try to attain?
My love, my love, by whom is your new path  sketched?
Must I watch the future claim you, wholly and apart?
Will the thoughts we shared never touch your heart?
Oh, tell me, will you ever come back to where we start?
