Lost Love

That feeling, it's back again
I'm not sure, but it's there
Deep inside of me, I'm sure
Back to haunt me, right now

Long ago, I lost her so
My love, she did not want
But my love for her, I still do feel
Deep inside, I want her still

What to do, with feelings so dear
Rejected, tossed away, like scrap
How to deal with wounds unclosed
The secret, I will never know

A wound unclosed hurts me still
A wound must take time to heal
How much time, I still don't know
It hurts me still, this wound unclosed

For long it will hurt, and this I know
Two cures it has, and both I know
Either time writ large, or else I know
Only her love for me, can cure me so

For all eternity, love is so
Romantic, like me, and secret so
For her love, what I would not give
Life, soul, almost anything

But she said no, and so
I sit here and cry, for so long
And if my love will not go
Die it shall, and pain me so

Perfect was she
And now I know
I lost her now
And forever so
