There is a darkness in my heart
A fear that you may not stay
I will be broken if you depart
The thought fill s me with dismay
We haven’t lately been in much accord
It seems you always want more
More than together we can afford
But I never thought of us a poor
We used to be so rich in love
Material things meant so little
We fitted together like a hand in a glove
Now our relationship seems so brittle
What changed? Is it you, is it me?
Maybe it’s the world that our love denied
Maybe we were just an anomaly
That the fates have rectified
I’ve been giving this some reflection
I would do anything to retain
Even a fraction of that affection
And hold you once again
So stay with me, be with me
Let’s regain the higher ground
We could replay the harmony
Of the love that we once had found.

I loved this poem like many of yours. It is sad though how love always seems to change one way or the other. Another great one my friend.
