Lost love

Years of wasted love, 
I handed it out at no cost,
but I gave too much.
Suddenly there wasn't any love left for me.

I needed your love to survive,
but it was nowhere to be found.

Empty words,
hanging thunderstorms.
An ocean of tears cried for you,
but not a single emotion felt for me.

A wall put up at my expense,
I couldn't climb over.

Did you mean it?
all of those times
I ran for you,
you ran from me.

It was like a maze,
and I was lost.

My love had no worth,
stepped on by uncaring feet,
Your love was hidden away
but still there.

Afraid of what they might think
you didnt meet me halfway.
You had gone down his path 
before i had time to put up the signs.

You said you loved me,
But I guess your love got lost on the way.

    Dodie and Fletcher,
    the orange dream catcher,
    Unopened messages, 
    Cinderella's transforming carriage.
    Crying in the shower,
    all I want is flowers!
    Buttons on my shirt,
    Can I get any more hurt?

    The sun slowly sinks down behind the mountains, 
    casting faded orange and yellow rays.
    Wispy clouds drift overhead,
    pushed by the wind. 
    A single cricket's chirp fills the air with a quiet song,
  • Movie of memories

    When I close my eyes I see a movie,
    small snippets stitched together,
    snippets of memories together.

    Your sticky fingers after eating all the strawberries instead of picking them,
    trimming your beloved rose bushes, one by one,
