A Treasure Lost

by Iola   Mar 15, 2006


Do you know what were lost when you showed me –
That the fire of love is put out by rain?
Do you even realize what you learned my heart –
About power and suffering and pain?

Can you see the crack in my soul –
When you promised to come back?
What about all the flashbacks that I sow –
When I realize today what I lack?

Did you see my diamond glow –
What about when it started to fade?
Did you realize, did you even know –
How it feels to get cut by a blade?

What about the shift in my mind –
Did you look and see it occur?
Are you still staying blissfully blind –
To endings that seem sadly blurred?

Do you look at me today –
And do you feel swollen and proud?
Do you realize that a part of me sunk away –
Like sunrays that get swallowed by a cloud?

Do you?
