Hurt

Why does it have to be this way?
Not even a single promise I hear you say.
Both my heart and my mind are hoping,
That you are not just a part of my past,
But a future, something that would last.

Now I realize that I am all alone.
Longing for the day that I can call you my own.
Both my heart and mind are asking,
How can I face this harsh reality?
That you can never be with me.

You are the only one that I have in my heart,
The one I pray for when we are far apart.
No matter how long you would let me wait.
And in this lifetime I only ask for one thing that is true,
No one else, no one else but you.

The master knows the one thing I want most,
To care for you  and hold you like a precious thing that once was lost.
To guard your heart until you realize,
That everything I hold dear has no sense.
What I really need is you, your presence.

There are times that I just stop and listen to the beat of my heart.
I never understood what you did to give life to something that once was torn apart.
Its during these times that I'd rather let it flow.
But I remember those words that you said,
That you don't know if you still love me, it felt like the end.

Why can't I just be the right one?
The shout you give when you are joyous and as bright as the sun.
In sadness, the hankie you use to wipe away the tears from your lovely face.
Your strength and shield when trials come your way,
The person that you'd want to stay.

I should open my eyes and stop dreaming.
go on with my life and start from the beginning.
How unfair could it become,
When the person you love most,
Tells you to stop and get lost.

Everything is all well now
Does this mean that everything will be like, wow?
You see, talking in anger would cause you to disconcert.
Writing a poem is just one of the things that you do when you get hurt.
