My heart is shattered, my soul in despair
Lost in the memories of a love so rare
I can't go on living like this every day
My lover's absence is driving me astray
I remember the days when we strolled hand in hand
Walking down the streets of our promised land
But now those streets are empty and cold
And I'm left with a story left untold
I see her in my dreams, so beautiful and bright
A beacon of hope shining through the night
But in the morning, she's gone, like a fleeting bird
Leaving me alone to face the absurd
I'm burning with passion for a girl I can't have
And it's driving me insane, making me mad
My heart is shattered, my soul in despair
And all I can do is to say a prayer
If it hadn't dawned, I wish she had stayed
By my side last night, not fading away
But fate had other plans, it seems
And now I'm left with shattered dreams
Forget me, I miss you, the words that I write
Trying to make sense of this endless night
But it's all in vain, my heart still bleeds
For the love that I lost, for the dreams that I need
What will I do when the pain takes over?
When the memories haunt me like a lover?
I'll close my eyes and I'll breathe deep
Hoping that one day, my heart will heal and leap
But until then, I'll hold on to the pain
And to the memories that still remain
I'll write my poems, full of sadness and woe
Hoping that someday, I'll let you go.
I wrote a poem, the lines were wounded by pain
You don't believe, every word was full of sadness
I wrote it awake at night with tears in my eyes
A thousand times before I wrote, longing was in my eyes
My heart is broken, my spirit is weak
But I'll keep on writing, trying to find the words I seek
For love is a mystery, a puzzle to solve
And I'll keep on searching, until my heart can evolve.
In the end, all I can do is to hope
That someday, I'll find the strength to cope
And maybe, just maybe, I'll find a new love
A love that will fit me like a glove.
