Questions and Memories

I used to believe in fairy-tale dreams

Of lovers dance enchanted romance





Twice I knew I found it

Several other times I wondered

Kept looking at the lovers

Wondering if this was...the one





Each a piece of me

Never to be removed

Or forgotten

Seems I just felt them all...each day





And to the ones

That seemed to get it right

I admired them, careful not to envy

While I prayed each and every night

That someday

A love like that would find me





A heart only stands so much pain

Before it's hard to even explain

That the callus's you see bleeding

Is not...your fault





So reclusive mad man

Dominates the very existence

and while others hold onto hope

He will stay surrounded

By questions, and memories.
