The Love That Was
Lost
I stared blankly at the lonely road;
The road that lay ahead.
With no one’s shoulder to cry on,
Upon my wretched fate!
Figures around me disappeared,
Leaving me in the dark;
Tears were rolling down my cheeks,
My heart, breathing, with jerks...
Love, I wanted, was pure in nature,
Something, wonderful to feel...
What I got, were deep wounds,
Which were hard to heal!
“Time will pass”, they said, “Wounds will
heal!”
But their scars remain...
No matter how hard I try,
My heart, still, aches with pain!
I tried to open my fist,
And there dropped the friendship-band...
Which was once given to me,
And with love, tied to my hand...
Its nothing but a memento now;
Which reminds of something that existed:
A beautiful relation between two hearts,
Which, has now become, rusted...
A chill ran down my spine,
A chill, as cold as Frost!
And there I was, standing on that road,
searching...
The Love That Was Lost!
