Lost Love

I toss and turn,
trying to ignore the burn
that rages through me
when i remember the time i used to be
the one who had your heart's key.

I fall asleep when it's almost light.
Its nearly dawn - well past midnight.
Then i dream of you,
remembering each time i'd say, 'i love you'
and you'd reply, 'i do too'.

Our love felt so strong,
but soon things went wrong.
I'd ask you to wait - i'd shout and shout.
When you didn't reply, there wasn't a doubt
that it was over; and from my eye, a tear ran out.

I can't take it anymore.
With all these thoughts, my heart feels sore.
Now, i always ponder -
what was the blunder
because of which we're not together?

I close my eyes
and try not to forget the lies
that i make myself say
in the hope that i may
be able to forget you someday.
