Love Lost?
by David Beale
They say love happens
When you dont even look
You could be walking
Even reading a book
It happened to me
Unlikely though true
Keep reading youll see
It could happen to you
Our meeting was secret
No faces at all
She would keep it secret
A screen or a wall?
It made no difference
I started to slip
Each word had importance
That came from her lip
She knew I was falling
Of her I felt the same
To her my heart was calling
All thought I was insane
Youve never even met her
They all used to say
I did not hear their laughter
Ill marry her one day
Two years had passed
Each day we spoke
My love unsurpassed
To me this was no joke
She called THAT day
My heart was a flutter
I tried to speak
But out came a mutter
What is it she asked
I knew not what to say
With all my fears masked...
Will you marry me this day?
She got so quiet
I worried as you guess
Heart and mind a riot
And then she said yes
My knees grew weak
My heart to explode
I could not even speak
Is she really my betrothed?
She said I love you
And I will be your wife
I said I love you too
For you Id give my life
For you Id give my life
Now youve made mine right
To think of you as my wife
There is no brighter light
That was weeks ago now
Since THAT day not a word
Have you ever heard your heart break
For that was all I heard
I loved her completely
Though we had never met
I could love her so sweetly
That chance Ill never get?
Why has she vanished
No reason I got
How could I be banished
Does she think of me not?
I saw us a family
The five of us as one
My God I felt so lucky
For them Id catch the sun
So now you know my ache
For this what do I do?
My heart pierced by a stake
Still my love for her is true
Her screen names gone
No call I can make
The coming of each dawn
My feelings I cant shake
Im in love with this woman
Though she went to thin air
She was sent to me from heaven
And with her I would be there
So please may I ask
What am I to do?
Do my love I just mask
What if it was you?
Have you ever been here
This place where of my heart
With everything unclear
And youre falling apart?
If you say yes
Please help me to see
My heart is a mess
Why has she left me?
To some this is silly
For that Im not sad
I guess this sounds corny
If heart break youve not had
I thank you for listening
And hope that you advise
My heart cant keep running
So please dont chastise
To me she is heavenly
This love of my life
Her name is Wendy
She was going to be my wife
