Love
You live on through words unspoken,
through a poem you still breathe.
________________________
What have you done to me?
A shadow of betrayal
as emotions shudder.
Once we savored life together,
innocent and childlike,
but your lies soured.
A painful vision of the truth lingers –
tears follow memory, follow pain,
and love forgotten.
In this torrent of painful memories,
I still love you.
Painful memories still cling
but slowly forgotten for
our love lives on,
even in the darkness
our passion burns brightly.
