Lost: A Poem by Jose D.

I waited for your love in hope,
That ours would come again,
And make me feel the things I felt,
When we were one, back then

But time and distance have erased,
The Things I wish anew,
And now I find myself alone,
Now that I’m here, Left with the thought of you,

what good is love, that does not touch,
what good is love, that fives you pain
what good is love, that makes you run,
And makes you lost out in the rain,

I traveled to another world,
Out far beyond the one we knew,
I thought that I could live again
Merely by the thought of you,

But what of hearts that beat as one,
And what of Passion and embrace,
Is it too much to ask of you,
To make the pain of mine erase,

what good is love, that does not touch
what good is love, that gives you pain
what good is love, that makes you run
And makes you lost, confused with pain,

Too painful this - to journey back
To times of love, the times we laughed,
The times we lay together wit
A sense of you, a sense of me.

So now, I journey on alone
Forever wandering, in my thoughts
And I will ask you again, once more
What good is love, without you?
