A Tale From a Broken Yet Healing Heart
When my eyes searched for you in the crowd,
Flooding my mind, with a tirade of thoughts,
A single humble prayer reverberated through my soul
I wished that you be mine forever and whole.
When the melancholy of the daily grind tires my soul,
I look for you in every face I follow and stare.
Hearing the words, never spoken from your lips,
Accepting the apologies that were never offered,
While my heart craves that you be mine forever.
When all you offer is pain and criticism,
I try to see the honesty in your words.
The pain behind your vicious whine,
With a humble prayer that you be mine.
