A Lonely Tear

We have professed love for one another; yet too this day our worlds remains realms apart, 
Our life’s remains as an excruciating love vessel that endlessly saisl between both of our 
hearts! 
I can look into your eyes and see the illumination of a sparkle twilight-light as you stare back 
at me, 
With the thought racing across your mind wondering, for the love that we share can we truly 
ever be? 

I do believe I have answered that question on numerous occasions so the last testament 
must be yours, 
Unconditional love is awaiting for you in one corner so it’s now your destiny to walk through 
the befitting doors, 
Time is the element of life that is of the essence, because today we’re here but by tomorrow 
either one of us could be gone! 

So I ask to you my love; to believe or to share in a leap of faith for each other, could that 
notion be so utterly wrong? 

In past and recent times I have poured out my heart and soul to you in the efforts of 
portraying my love for you! 
And yes, what did started as just friendship amongst strangers lead to a profusion of love for 
one another that grew! 
I cannot look into your eyes and deny the fact of the love that I bare for you from deep 
down within, 
You know too that the love is there for you but in your mind you see our love to be a falsity 
form of a sin! 

Can real love represent the formalities of a sin if intertwine to form the structural solitude of 
an everlasting bond? 
I do believe in faith and destiny amongst those in love so I ask of you to state if those beliefs 
of mines are completely wrong? 

In the midst of our daily lives we tend to lose sight of what brings joys into our worlds and 
just focus on all the mishaps, 

But for you to turn your back on the love we can share; how are you so sure that’s not a sign 
of the Devil's trap? 

I ask that, due to that the Lord and Savior knows what's in my heart so if you share the 
same then he knows what's in yours! 

It is from his blessings that I continue to pursue you and the love for you; because in him I 
stated if I had you I want not anymore! 

If I was to perish today I would sign off on the removal of thy body but request that my soul 
shall remain right here, 
My Lord, I shall not command of you but the reason for the request is to see that in my 
demise, would the woman I truly love shred a lonely tear!

“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. “
