From My Heart

So sad and alone
Here it is this life to which I've grown
True love so long ago I was once shown
How was I to have ever known
That now I'm barely making it on my own
I no longer have him to hold
I feel the numbness it's so cold
I'm way to young to feel quite this old
I think back often to when we were sixteen
And how I wish I could change so many things
I remember how he promised me a ring
Then in a moment in time playing a song to which the words he would sing
And in a swift instant that moment destroyed everything
He was trying so hard to convince himself, yet never had convinced me
He wanted to believe
That the love he had gave me was no longer meant to be
He was so sensitive yet so strong
Somehow I still knew with him I wouldn't go wrong
But fate really did have cruel plans in store
And had our feelings for each other hide and for years be ignored
Here we are again
With our love will we still pretend
How will this all play out
How will this end
Will we be swept away
Or remain torn apart
These are questions are from my heart
Can we make one more start
These questions I ask everyday
But I can't answer so my pain will stay
At least for now it will remain
Never forget but loosen up on the reigns of our past
Let's show them that true love really does last
