A love that will never be

Black tears are streaming
Down my face.
My head is pounding,
My heart begins to race.

You torment me so,
But you don't even know,
How much pain I feel,
All the sorrow I conceal.
My silent screams,
The haunting dreams,
They all return to you-
-And the things you do.

Every moment together;
Every second we share,
All the talks on the phone-
-Then being left all alone,
Staring at the wall again.
Wanting you as more then just a friend.
Just wishing to hold you in my arms,
To protect you from all harm.

But a relationship
We never start.
To protect our broken
And battered hearts.

Without a beginning-
-There is no end
We will never get
Around that bend.

To flow down the river-
To the waterfall-
To stand on the edge-
Wanting nothing at all...

Besides you beside me, your hand in mine-
-Together we will cross the line,
Taking the plunge into the deep.
Your love I will forever keep.
To be with you for eternity I wish to stay,
With your trust, which I'll never betray.

We will love each other
Till the day we die,
But we will never be together-
-Till our souls are free to fly.
