Two years have gone by and still
I remain alone.
When you broke my heart,
you stole my confidence
and for that - you will have to atone.
I continue forward,
travelling life's rocky road,
keeping busy, living life, helping others,
yet my heart still holds a heavy load.
Looking back I realize now,
that we were not really matched.
Destiny showing that
my heart was true
whilst yours was just a mirage.
Knowing this doesn't seem to help
as my heart is stays securely latched.
I appreciate what God has given me, my family, my home and my friends.
Every day I search the simple truths knowing "happiness" does not depend on "things."
The haunting, daunting thought is that I'll always be single while negotiating life's slippery bends.
A simple wish is all I ask,
to somehow again be free.
Please give me back that key
to unlock my protected heart.
Please give me back my carefree attitude
so I can again to me "be me!"
