Forlorn

Impossible to ignore you

For you make life so true

Being away from you is too cruel

Your presence my only fuel

In your embrace I could never turn away

My feelings for you will never fray

How can you think it’s possible for me to keep you at bay?

In your arms is the only place I wish to lay

Life will bring obstacles in abundance

The journey be paved with thorns and without you I am forlorn

Yet my heart knows only you, it’s the truth that away from you I am reluctant

 To hear you sad, to see you sad I am so torn

Only you make this path so worthwhile

We can bide our time

Together I know we can make it through

Holding your hand, a bliss I never knew

Soul so fractured

When a distance comes between

Nothing can be seen

But this we have ventured

And our hearts have nurtured

A smog around us may arise

Yet the emotions are no lies

Words so simple they are inadequate

To describe feelings so animate

Jealous eyes may us surround

But they can never know what love us binds

Angry words will exchange

But what lies inside will never change

To turn away from you a mistake

Something I can never make

Our bond too strong

No ... this is not fake
