A Foolish Heart

In the darkness of night

I awake with a dreadful fright

From within the depths of me I tried 

You had given up and lied

And heaviness from your smite 

Caused me to lose the light

Knowing things would never be alright.

 

And all the missing of our dreams 

Leaves me with internal screams

Now I see nothing is what it seems

I spent my days creating loving scenes 

Knowing all along it was wrong

Beliefs created kept me strong

Yet you and I were singing a different song.

 

Never to give as I gave you

My adoration was so bold and true 

This missing breaks me up in two 

What can I do?

 

Everyday I wish you well

Though I am living in this hell 

Forever hoping you will come to me 

So we can put behind this misery 

Truth be known this can never be.

 

Harmony lived not within these walls 

I knew catastrophe would befall

As emptiness became my friend

To you, my love I always send

For I forgive your deep pretence 

And feelings of ambivalence.

 

Forever I adore you from afar

And if there is a glimmer

Should I leave the door ajar

Maybe you’ll come running for another start 

It would be such a foolish heart.
