Standing on love’s precipice
Calling out your name
Aimlessly searching the caverns
Of your cold and empty heart.
Crawling on my knees
Begging for your embrace
Humiliation a close friend
Desire an everlasting foe.
Craving your caress
If only I could find your heart.
I crawl forever onwards
Deeper into the darkness.
A whisper of an embrace
Your heart beating against mine.
I have finally found you,
Or so I foolishly believe.
Withdrawing your heart
You leave me for her.
Your hands push me away
I stumble over the edge,
Losing a love I never possessed.
