The Understudy
How your love I yearn to feel
Without your touch my pain can’t heal
The moon, the stars, could all be ours
And I’d not feel these love-torn scars

So long ago, years ‘fore today
To you I gave my heart away
Love indeed doth take its toll
For now you hold my heart-rent soul

You hold it far beneath your eyes
You try to hide but no disguise
Can keep it from your own for good
And what now stands where my love stood?

Have you found a better way
To reconcile the night with day
and yearnings of the heart so strong?
Could it all have been so wrong?

You hit the nail on the head in a situation I went through. Love takes it's toll on alot of things. That was a good read.
