Lost ‘Love’

Down the long dusty road I walk
wondering where I shall next end up.
With me I carry nothing but pride,
pride that shall not be quenched easily.
I remember you and all our times;
Such thoughts can only make me cry.

Time after time I ask myself
why my destiny was so cruel.
Although I know it’s not my fault,
I can’t help but feel it inside.
This hurt flows from deep beyond;
Perhaps it was I that made us cry?

You said you wanted me, loved me
and made me feel needed.
Now painful memories are all I hold,
Deceits, distrust and paper roses you gave,
Where all I offered was love and peace;
No, it was not I who made us cry.

Dreamer, such a sad piece, yet there is growth in recognition, and the ending line shows just that. Well done!
