love, i am broken

MY ALLAN
we have all heard
what it is
to live
on a hope
but
have you heard
what it is
to love
on a hope?
it is a fate
far worse then
one would think.
it is heart wrenching
and life changing
in all the worst of ways.
it is
dreams unfulfilled
desires unknown
and dark places
often visited.
it is
the silent scream
of a broken heart.

PATHS NOT TAKEN
i cannot follow you.
you offer me
stardust
and sunlight
when i need
life
and
a partner.
the path you offer
cannot be taken
by us,
by me
and you.

FORGET
i have tried
to think of now
and here,
to forget the
wheres and whens
and the hows
of the future.
but i love you
and
i'm left
with a
broken heart

ME
Love,
I am broken.
you are
unfullfilled
and
unobtainable.
what i need
you cannot give
