Love Poem: Gave Up

Gave Up

I gave up with a sign of defeat
I let go of everything I dreamt
I told her I wouldn't say goodbye
I've seen tears come to her eyes
I held her hands close to mines
Took her heart and broke it apart
Watched her fly away with the wind that blows every other day
Saw her smile that let go of all she had
Touched her heart only to be like that of a dis- honest man
Gave her my all when my all wasn't enough
Let her see a side of me to which I never knew
Only a crazy man would give up on the love he has for his lover
Only a blind man cannot see a heart that beats
But he can feel the heart that beats
A special heart that no one can see
To me I am that crazy man who gave up
I let my mind say no to my heart too many times
If only I was that blind man who only could feel that special heart
I need no eyes because I rather feel the touch of love than see it
She was beautiful yes she was I hurt her heart
But I will never forget a memory that always has a start
