Love's Unrequited Psalms

Wisdom of the Heart

What is life when seeing someone you love is a far-reaching thought next to impossible?

Is it full of desires, dreams and unspoken feelings?

How does my heart heal, when it's medicine is just to see you - to hear your voice or admire the curve in your lips when you smile.

How long will it hurt?

How long does this longing last?

It's been years, but time hasn't healed this wound.

What do I do with this love you denied me from giving to you?

Where do I put it and in what container would you prefer me to store it in?

Do I sit on a shelf? Or file it away in my memory bank?

Or do I give it to someone else completely?
