Love has eluded me
all my life
like a series
of broken promises

Longing for
a woman's touch
upon this fragile body
bruised by evil minds

Eyes that swell
forming teardrops
that could fill an ocean
spread across the world

Words spoken
by some
leaving invisible marks
upon this tortured soul

My heart dims
the shining light dampens down
the last glimmer of life within
soon to erase my existence

Leaving but a last hope
one simple wish to fulfill
sharing a blissful memory
of someone to simply say

I Love You!
