Restless Love

My Love…of many lifetimes

Why did we meet by chance?

What heavenly purpose did it serve,

with its passion and romance?

I have no place in your world

there is no room for me...

Your youthful crush you’ve realized

You’re pushing away from me.

I feel so foolish and careless

with this senseless heart of mine.

To think I could lovingly cherish

One so charming, sweet, sublime.

Walking away is so painful

and is not my soul’s desire.

Staying will only break this heart

Making my condition more dire.

One word from you could make me stay

One look all fear vanishes away

One gentle touch I’m yours to keep

One soft whisper returns quiet sleep.
