A Love Lost

By: Rasheda Taylor

A heart of gold
has turned to stone.
One word from you
And I'm all alone.

I wish it didn't have to be
The way it has turned out.
For I would give up anything
To rid our love of any doubt.

You used to be so loving,
Now your heart is black and cold.
Why did you have to wait so long
To let your true feelings unfold?

You led me on and made me believe
That I was the only one you would ever love.
Now I feel so lost and confused
Because you're the only one I can think of.

Why are you so afraid
To admit the way you feel for me?
Do you really care what people think?
Or are you too blind to see?

One way you're going to realize
That I'm not always going to be here...
I'll get smart and I'll move on
...And shed this last tear.
