Once My Heart Beating Failed

by Golden AnGel Rhapsodist   Mar 12, 2017


~~~~**0**~~~~
How can I force, how can I wake
This dead and defeated emotion?

How can I try, how can I fake
This vanishing devotion?

~~~~**0**~~~~
I want it to revive
My love hope and desire,

But it can't, it really can't
In my heart, there's a dent.

~~~~**0**~~~~
Even though how hard I've tried
My heart's still numb,

I can say there's nothing left behind
With this love that I found.

~~~~**0**~~~~
Once my heart's beating failed
It will insist on loving you,

But it will never be the same
Even how sweet you call my name

~~~~**0**~~~~
Why does it hurt me so?
I don't know if there's nothing left you know,

The love you've once ignored
I think it's already dissolved.

~~~~**0**~~~~
I don't know if this silent feeling
Will still be waiting

For the day you call me babe
Let's see, let's breathe

Let's try,
'
'
'
'
And don't ask why.

~~~~**Gel**~~~~

    Quite fascinating this is!

    Such a pleasing love script could have only come from a person who can understand the deepest reality of love. You know how to pour out the feelings on the paper; which I believe is a remarkable ability. I know some people like taking their love at some different level, as it creates a great attachment to their souls.
    Very well written.
