What a shame
By HJG
It's a crying shame
The living proof
That nothing here
Is what I want
The death of love
Has come too often
My life you see
An ironic mess
The one I love
So far away
His soft touch
What I long for
A piece of paper
A pencil too
The comfort I seek
Just won't come
This sad story
Told too often
Started with hope
Ending in tragedy
A soft pillow
Lay my head down
No light here
It's ok to sleep
Now to dream tonight
I want to see you
And make your touch
So real to me
My heart it aches
It pines for you
The tears come heavy
The trouble of it all
And all I want
Nothing too much
Is to hold you
And say "I Love You"
