Commonly Unaccepted

It's, generally, about the pain that denial can cause. The narrator's love is dead, obviously, though the narrator refuses to accept it.

What's wrong with me?

I turn, fast-- hoping to catch a glance,

--- I know I heard you

---You cannot hide.

But somehow you do.

 

I am doomed,

to walk this planet,

following your footsteps.

Fading in the soft sand.

The gentle breeze,

cannot veil you.

 

Damned, am I,

ever to chase,

your elusive shadow.

Moving faster,

than I know you ever could.

 

Why does God,

punish me to,

see the soft curves of your,

handsome face,

everytime my eyes close?

My heart freezes,

pumps no longer;

has my term ended?

May I live on,

at last?

 

I am fifteen years,

into my sentence of denial,

for the crime of loving you;

more than I could ever love myself.

 

I'm not sorry.

I do not regret--

so add to my term.

A life spent, searching for,

your strong heart beat--

though I know it no longer,

is a life spent better,

than I ever could have on my own.

[Angel's Lady]

I turn, fast-- hoping to catch a glance,
--- I know I heard you --- Yes, I can feel this line.

for the crime of loving you; --- beautifully written line...

Perfect flow, rhythm, rhyme, unconditional conditional love, longing, yearning, craving...
Great write!
