What good is love
That feels so strong
If all your told
Is that it’s wrong

What good is love
Deep in your soul
When that love
Cannot be told

What good is love
Kept in a cage
It drives you nuts
It causes rage

What good is love
So warm and so true
When what you need
Is kept from you

I do not know the answer to
These questions that I’m asking you
I only know a love so true
Should not be locked away

I ask that you
Assist me to
Find a way
To see this through

It hurts me so
To know your mine
Yet that I cannot
Have you

I’m living now on borrowed time
The time that you will give me
And if this feeling hurts you
I hope that you forgive me

I want only to love you
The best that I can
No hidden moments
Just Love

Very well written.
All this talk of love has left me wanting a smoke    

take your time and she`ll come around, and if not then mabey she`s not the right one?
some time`s we have to do alot of fishing before we catch that perfect fish.
good luck
