My Heart Is Not My Own

by Ruby K P   Sep 14, 2005


My heart is not my own,
It's your heart on loan.

Unfortunately I'll have to return it to you in three years time,
But all the memories that we have shared will always remain mine.
when the end does finally come we'll both have to be brave,
And bury our love and relationship in a fate-dug grave.

Our memories will have to be cremated and forever will they burn,
For all eternity my soul will seek you and for you my body will yearn.
All that we had between us was a bond of innocent love,
Once these narrow minded people destroy that we'll recapture it up above.

Our love story so far has overall flowed like magic,
Why would God want to part us? Can't he see it's going to be tragic.
My body will be fuming with anger and my heart aching with pain,
Even the skies will cry with us and flood the world with rain.

You are my oxygen, my air, water and sun,
When I first met you that's when my life begun.
When you are going to part from me, that's when my life will end,
My heart will be shattered into so many pieces that it will be impossible to ever mend.

When we entered this relationship we knew what was in store,
We came from different backgrounds, which in the past had been in war.
Who were we kidding when we began this dream?
Reality is so harsh, brutal and so mean.

All the feelings we have worked on, for example care and trust,
are destined to fly away with the wind like pieces of useless dust.

You will always be remembered for the perfect soul-mate you've been,
And in all my life it is true to say - you're the beautifulest creation I've seen.

Unfortunately, my heart was never my own, It's always been your heart on short loan.
