A Note of a Love Lost

Location

This was actually writen for a friend who told me how he felt but couldn't really put it to words, so half explained it to me and this happened...

I gave my heart and it was returned ripped apart. 
I received only a taste of joy... 
But it will stay with my always. 
I...I thought you were the light at the end. 
Instead you only made this world of mine darker. 
Now all I see is sadness. 
A never ending darkness. 
And no answers to these questions. 
I...thought you might have been the answer I...was searching for so long. 
When I was with you... 
I thought I would never again be alone. 
Not knowing, of course, that I was really... 
More alone then I had ever been before. 

So what of a love unspoken? 
Well I...didn't think I had to speak. 
I thought it was clear... 

A dream? 
Well, maybe it was...just that... 
But I thought...well.... 
I always dreamed that... 
That 1 day I would meet a girl that 
Perhaps I....could love without fear... 
And when I found her she'd....love me too. 
Well I...had thought I found her and she was... 
Everything I had dreamed and more exept she... 
Didn't love me too. 
Even though I had thought that...she did... 
I guess she didn't think I could offer her anything. 
And she....was right. 
I have nothing. 
Well, not quite... 
Nothing to offer... 
I had this fragile heart. 
Now it's shattered.... 

So what of the sharp edges of a broken heart? 
I can never touch it again... 
It will never be put back together and... 
It will b a constant reminder of this misadventure. 
Love is dead... 
It can not exist here anymore... 

But I have one final note... 
I would do it all over again... 
If only for that sweet taste to last a bit longer...
