The one for me is you....

by Ash   Aug 22, 2009


Nothing matters - is that really the truth?
Hidden beneath brushes encrusted through melancholic tunes,
I hear your voice in the depths of my heart but sing,
The same love I feel that spread across those very dunes.

Many paintings sprung up but none could depict what i felt,
How easily and simply you once made my heart melt.
With every word you said my pains and sorrows faded away,
Never a step too far nor together to forever stay.

Yet entrusted with a hope so futile and cold,
You held but a hand with memories drifting away untold.
You gathered petals that were strewn across the ground many a time back,
Your laughter echoed but emptiness was gained - never what we lack.

Entangled through the streams of a love that floated so sweet,
Meeting many a times on an afternoon only to listen to your heart beat.
Could you not tell in her eyes the truth you could seek,
Had you only once looked a little deeper all would not remain so bleak.

Magical ways entwine themselves in lives that hope to sleep,
In desperation for all hearts but remain caged within a blistered keep.
Another painted persona of the love that once rose to the stars,
That even a cold winters morn could not distance nor bind behind bars.

And yet with such ease you swept her off her feet,
Forever to be your slave - to follow your every bidding even upon a cold empty street.
Yet the story that would occur would be far from what once was seen,
Never even in the deepest thoughts could this have been foreseen.

Alas, be it said like all and not as a fairytale would end,
Broken hearts would scatter and the wounded soldiers would not allow to mend.
The wounds that burned so deep that would torture even the most patient mind,
The agony that would be endured over a love so fake till emptiness one would only find.

How could it be ever thought that love was a blessing,
When all that would happen would be wounds requiring a new dressing.
Yet all hope can never be lost for the light must still shine,
Day and night in hearts until the end of time...

The day will come n - I know it' true,
When you will realise what you meant to me and how much I truly loved you,
The day will come - I know it's true,
When you will say, "The only one for me is you".....
