Failed Love

by Electric Monkey   Sep 27, 2006


He seems so happy when at first
He falls in love to quench his thirst
For attention and care; he thinks that he's won
Her hand and thinks that she's the one.

She says she loves him and he returns
The love again, within him it burns.
They stand together holding the other,
Closer than any friend or brother.

Yet all is not well; she finds anothe,r
Cnd tells no one but produces a cover
For her affair. He does not know
That he is her facade, only her show.

His one true friend tells him this thing.
He does not believe; he cannot bring
Himself to accept it. It cannot be true.
He confronts, and she says "I no longer love you."

Those words, they bite and drain his soul.
It causes mush pain; he does not know
How to cope with such loss. It hurts so much.
He'll never learn how to love or touch.

He grows so cold so brazen and hard,
For his heart has been broken. So many shards
Pierce through him until he is left alone,
And all life and love from him are gone.
