I was lost
when I opened the last door
I felt as though I had been here before
but it was not my destination
so I gave up
disguising what cannot be disguised
The torture of love
laments forever
never forgiving sins
My heart
once yours now roams
without regrets
sufficating in its own breath
not knowing if tomorrow
will exist
I can get used to this
the feeling of feeling nothing
but relieve
Strange
how love can hurt
to know what should have not be known
that is my pain
Sometimes
it's not liberating
to know the truth
I'm trap
forever in a feeling
of abandonment
with you right here by my side
Love
has been altered to a state
of unhapiness
brought on by distrust
and another's touch
A choice
made by you in a moment
when two heartbeats
was not enough
Broken
detached
by another's kiss
And along came sadness
opening the wrong doors
deserting me
in the middle of nowhere
in this cycle of lost

Ah, I love it when poetry touches me, as yours has touched me today...I wish you well in searching for Love. ~Rayne

For in much wisdom is much grief
& he who increases knowledge
    increases sorrow...
