Broken-Hearted

Sometimes it happens, and you don't know why,

you want to touch the clouds,

but higher and higher appears the sky.

You desire to sing a song,

but the melody just doesn't come.

You want to voice your feelings aloud,

but words simply betray you.

That fabulous thing you had always wished for,

that beautiful moment you had so longed for...

..its actually happening...

.......but again......

there's something within you,

that makes you tighten up,

though you want to respond,

you can't.

Cheating yourself and your conscience,

you do not acknowledge,

the germination,

of a tender sapling of love.

It's because,

what your heart feels,

is not what your mind decides.

But how can you be so callous,

oblivious to the feelings of the other?

How can you,

be deaf enough not to hear,

the shuddering sobs....

...of a lonely innocent heart...
