#180 Lamentations in Love


My heart's full of tears, but I won't cry,
As I refuse to let them flow, I rather let them die.
A screaming soul thirsty for relief it will never see,
But that's a concept my mind can no longer conceive.

Dreams crumble, beautiful ashes caught in gusts of wind,
As regret pours in, lingering moments from when things could be.
They say Love isn't a game,
Then why am I exhausted, feeling so played.

I have little strength to pursue,
Because this wasn't the direction to journey to.
Made a choice for the things I yearned,
Now paying for the mistakes I never learned.

And my heart won't relinquish my soul,
Praying if Love loosen its grip, would it let me go.
Because life as I know it, isn't what I intended,
Feel like I spend more of my days more than silently pretending.

That this table set before me will just have to do,
Like there could be no one else after you.
And I despise myself for formulating these foolish thoughts,
Because I admit my love for you comes purely from my heart.

There's no suitable solution,
Guilty emotions, knowing these are my choices.
For my life, please step in to intervene,
As my heart's torn in all directions, an bloody scene.

If I depart, would I suffer more?
Should I be content, instead of wanting more?
And although I would rather it be another way,
I know I'll forever lament the Love that won't come my way.
