Lost Hearts

I know in my heart that something isn't right,

But I do not know what it might be.

Your mood it is strange and foreign to me,

If you wish, I will go and set you free.


Your love has become distant and cold,

You say yes, but your heart says no.

You want me to stay, yet you want me to go,

Why is it that I still love you so?


Your wants and needs are different from mine,

Your love for me is like a remote control.

On and off, always surfing your emotions until you find the one you want,

Then you flip the channel when it starts to get too hot.


My love for you is like a river; it is deep and flowing,

And rages out of control, it spreads out of it borders,

Overflowing at times, drowning me in its wake.

Leaving me shaken with no words to utter.


I wait for your response to my affections,

Only to be hurt by you're cold rejections.

What has happened to the love we once shared?

There was a time that we both really cared.


Now we're two strangers in the same room,

You live in your world; I live in mine,

Lost is a love that could have grown.

Neither of us wanting to realize that we're all alone.
