A TOUCH OF LOVE
I SIT AND STARE;
MY HEART SEEMS SAD.
IT SEEMS I HAVE NEVER FELT THE TOUCH OF LOVE,
THE PROTECTORS EMBRACE
CALLING ME INTO WAITING,ARMS WITH CHARMING WORDS THAT FLUTTER LIKE DOVES
THOUGHT MY MIND
DID I EVER KNOW SUCH DEVOTION?
WILL I SEARCH FOREVER FOR SOMETHING GIVEN
SO UNSELFISHLY TO OTHERS?
GREED HAS STOLEN ALL THE CHARMS OF MY LIFE TO WEAR UPON HER WRIST. KEEPING THEM,BEFORE MY EYES,BUT FLASHING THEM TO TEASE MY POOR HEART.
I SMILE AND LOOK AWAY, HOPING THE PAIN I FEEL
WILL NOT DESTROY THIS MOMENT.
WITH MY EYES THAT HAVE HELD CONSTANT SORRORW.
I DONT KNOW WISH FOR PITY,
JUST AN END TO MY
CONSTANT YEARNING FOR SOMETHING I MAY NEVER OBTAIN.
