Lovers

It's cruel to think that my heart
belongs to someone
I can't have

It's so cruel that I'm left
behind in this shadow
that you walked in

me alone in a desperate
place, hiding myself
pretending i'm not here
or there or anywhere

And you, across the room
burdened with our secrets
never to be shared
and I still can't have you

There are times late at night
my heart broken tears that
wet my pillow
knowing that you feel the same
only brings me round again
in those places
lonely and longing

It's cruel to think that my heart
belongs to someone 
I can't have
a life we'll never share
our love brings
only hate to bare

you reach for me,
just one more time
this time
I promise
I will let you go
only if you say so
you whisper in my ear,
never never
and on and on
it goes
