Love One Lost

A sorrow left deep within my heart
The place where all our heartbreak start
Where a wound so deep will ever fade
The pain within this spot remain
Call it the soul or what you will
Call it your heart where love once filled
But all that is left in that tiny spot
Is an intense pain of a love one lost

Come ease my pain and soothe my wound
Come take my heart, come take it soon
For all I feel within this realm
Is dark and empty and overwhelmed
With each day I struggle more to be
The person that I use to see
In the mirror each day and night
Before bed and early light.

Come visit me within my mind
Where you are easy to find
I won't have to look far
To feel you near,for there you are
And all my thoughts of you won't fade
Or dessert me in any way
A lifetime of memories there will stay
And so will I, as of today.
