Looking for love, but only finding lies.
Hopefully one day it'll be love I find
Hopefully one day mine won't be so blind.
Cause one day I know I'm gonna grow old.
And one day to you I want my heart sold.
Cause when we touch, to me it has been proved.
Something still remains, still left unremoved.
But wishing for more I begin to pray.
For those three little words you always used to say.
Instead you push me back, time and time again,
Just say if you will love me, just tell me when.
Staring out the window, I can see the rain.
Only your reflection keeping me sane.
Cause one day I know I will see your smile.
That one day I know won't come for awhile.

this is very sad, I hope you find that she loves you again one day. Sometimes people need a break from one another. I liked the rhyme and the fact that there were no cliches, in a peice like this it would be easy to rely on well-worn phrases. Real nice.

I love this poem,
I am gonna stare deep into your eyes.
Looking for love, but only finding lies.
That was brilliant
And the last two
Cause one day I know I will see your smile.
That one day I know won't come for awhile.
A writter should start and end well! You did!
