And How

How can one man stay in love

For a time longer than that of life

Where every glimpse of his future

Comes both with smiles of joy

But also with pains beyond number

How can one man stay in love

When what was had was so foolishly lost

Where every thought of the past

Causes the heart to skip beats

But brings realization of what's gone

How can one man stay in love

With hopes of something new

That his love now is considered one-sided

Because he wanted more than enough

And through selfishness ended with nothing

How can one man stay in love

By looking far and wide

And seeing everyone with a heart

Holding lovingly onto another



All but him

He's all alone in love

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Love doesn't give up, even though there are times where I wish I could.
