Love Gone.... from LadyTr

I am surrounded by crowds of people But alas I feel so alone Is it because my love has gone To places from me unknown? There was a time when joy was here The days held so much meaning The light shown with such gleaming Now darkness is all that's near. The emptiness is hard to bear My heart dwells in total despair It longs for his embrace My eyes to see his shining face. I whisper his name upon the breeze I call to his with all my heart But so many miles we are apart He does not hear my breaking heart. I long for love's sweet caress To feel it beat beneath my breast Someday this pain shall pass And I'll forget his love at last. Till that time has come and gone I'll feel the hurt of love's sad song Twas sweet and gentle when it was mine I thought it would last for all time. But then I did not know His love could never be mine For he loved another It seemed all the time. So I shall leave love far behind Never wanting it to be mine For love is a bitter sweet thorn When you heart is forever torn.
