Love is always out of reach
It comes, never leaves
But can’t be held onto.

I give it, and I need it
It has been here
But can’t be with me.

I seem to find it
And I feel it
But I Can’t have it.

I just want it
I just need it
I Can’t keep it.

I don’t forget it
I Can’t do that
I Can’t hold it.

I just wish for
I just hope for
I just hang on.

I should have it
It should be here
But she’s not.

Too much distance
Too much time
It’s still just me.

Will it happen?
Could it maybe?
Like to think so.

I Can’t give up
Not so willing
I just want love.

Here before me
Not so far away
In my arms.

Just to hold her
Just to kiss her
Love for me.

I Can’t stand it
I Can’t believe it
I Can’t help it.

I Can’t wonder
I Can’t sleep
I Can’t wait.

I Can’t go on
I Can’t give up
I Can’t think.

I am ready
Where is she?
I Can’t see her.

I Can’t touch her
I Can’t sense her
I Can’t show her.

I need answers
I need strength
I need faith.

I Can’t tell her
I Can’t dream
I Can’t. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 156 [topic] => 22 [informant] => Joker17 [notes] => [ihome] => 1 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
