When Love Dies
Hearts Try To Hide The Hurt
I don't remember the day
the exact hour or place
Or the song that was playing
as I scoured your face
Trying hard to recall
the love that we shared
Digging deep into my soul
to find a part that still cared
But I knew it had died
though I tried to cover it up
I argued and denied
that we'd fallen out of love
The tender moments we knew
and the passion that burned
Like the seasons, it flew
and our tides quickly turned
Till we felt nothing at all
no anger, no joy
Left lifeless, like a doll
or a useless old toy
But somewhere deep inside
kept with the webs and the dust
Lies a memory that cries
for the ending of us

Very relatable
Ki: Un~Requited: "True-Love" "We cannot force people to love us or be faithful to us. People change and evolve; for better or worse. Either the attractions or feelings towards one another are still there or they just aren't for whatever reason, regardless of how we try to whip our minds around it." - Jk -
And the fragility of relationships is so well-expressed here. Well done, Kelli!
Poet and KNOW-IT! You really spin these like Charlotte spun webs!
