Lost Love

So many words, so many lies
funny how there's nothing left
to say we had our share of our
days in the sun
but we let the clouds
get in the way
who knew how high we
could climb
until we get to the top
saw how far we could fall
now that your gone
it's all I can do to keep from
losing it all

Tell me what you wish on now
that our star has fallen from
the sky where did we go so wrong
in this love that was so long
and how did I kiss you goodbye

Letters, cards and pictures of you
I never thought they could look
so old must been
a fool
we had it all but it fell apart
when our love grew cold
standing with you in the rain
I feel so alone

only now in the end
can we drop our guard
and be real
wishing you well
watching you go
I don't know what to feel

Cause lately my heart keeps
telling me to run to you
I still can't believe your gone
But baby my mind keeps telling me
that we are through
and telling my heart to move on.

Re: Lost Love

Half way through your poem, I had the feeling that you wanted it all back; a revisit on the happy times! I was disappointed at the end as you give it all up. But a great write, still.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
