Lost is my being
It struggles along the withered veins of time
Desperately searching for the one thing that means anything to its meek existence
Weary footsteps are all that it can muster
Sight a sense that no longer matters anymore
For love does flow from places that are unseen
Sceptical it has become believing it is searching for nothing
Holding on to tattered beliefs
Lovers flaunt themselves in front of my heart
Causing despair to bloom
No matter how many times my poor heart tries
It always seems to find a dagger buried in it
Not knowing whether dreaming or awake
Just simply being
Trying to hold on for that angel
But tossed in amongst devils
However my being will not collapse
For love is the only reason for being

It does hurt to see happy couples enjoying each other doesn't it?!? I know it feels like you will never feel like they do but one day you and I will both find someone who loves us as much as we will love them! ~*Hugs*~ and Great write, it really touched my heart!

Flames I think you are quite correct with that statement, I think if people like us keep looking we will find something eventually, and thank you I am glad that I touched your heart, that is why I am here.
Sun I shall it is the only thing keeping me here.
And I see miss nancy cuts and pastes her posts, but thank you for reading it and at least responding to it.
