This will not be;
This cannot be-
For all the things
you've said to me
are sheer imaginations
of an overzealous heart.
Still I do swear
the love I bear
was never far from truth-
I speak,
you listen...
and yet a fool's tongue was mine
that spoke of life and love divine
and yet all else proves no such thing
it was my light, to you-a fling;
No pity for our suffering?
This will not be;
This cannot be-
but not because of me.
Author notes
Love problems. I'm left with no choice but to lose the one I love, because he simply chooses not to love me-despite his true emotions.

I really like this. So sad...Sometimes love can be a real vicious thing. I love the lines:"This will not be;
This cannot be- but not because of me."
Good Job!
