My Heart Can Talk
 Unrequited Love
I have a heart that’s been slowly broken
I longed to hear words that were never spoken
I craved an embrace on a deserted beach
A kiss of love, a caress on my cheek
A weekend away, a flower, a gift
A birthday surprise, a note of sweet nothings
The freedom to call, to knock on your door
To paint you a picture to place on your wall
To sit well with your friends and the ones that matter
But I’m now at the end of your rambling chapter
The memories are vivid, they make me tearful
I think of the laughter, it doesn’t ease them
A hope of commitment, a life of peace
A book, a drawing, a journey of learning
My soul mate, my life, my goal, my heart
I reach out to catch, it falls apart
I tried, I gave, I changed, I loved
It became too much, I could never compete
When my living ends and I have my last thought,
You will be there my love, for keepsÂ
