Confessions: Love Vacancy

We were as close as life would allow us to be,
Like sand gathered on the beach across the sea,
You were my closest friend, my only lover,
There was only you, never another,

Impossible to separate the lovely two,
At least that’s what I believed, from this point of view,
With no regard, nonchalantly interrupted my life,
And though it wasn’t the best, I had no strife,

Rethinking the change in atmosphere had no limits,
Lasting forever beyond the living,
I loved you, every escaped thought, tattooed with your name,
You said you loved me too, the melody your heart sang,

So why are you no longer by my side?
Publicly shedding my last tears, the others I hide,
Missing you deeply, heartfelt wishing you could remain,
When you’re absent, none shields my rain,

As it pours…, only missing you more,
Wondering if you’ll gracefully return again,
Should I wait for you, or let hope end?
Should I hold on to the memories of you and I?

The weight it carries I refuse to deny,
Holds me closer, longer, than desired, leaving me where I am,
On shores of life waiting once again,
Wondering if you really care how much I yearn for you,

To once again know the intimate elements that make of you
Rekindled before my time expires…,
As seconds feel like never ending minutes, minutes like eternal hours,
And hours fade like laundry forgotten in the sun,

Aspirations I could stop calling, but my heart’s unfinished, Saying
Return to me…,
Hear my plea…
Draw near to me…,

Or am I unwilling to be believe, what unfortunately could truly be,
That Love has forgotten me.
