Burden


This heart of mine,
has wept,tears of joy,
tears of pain.
Grief and Pride
together outweighed.
This heart of mine,
has kept hidden,
memories of you and me,
for all eternity.
The laughter we shared,
the pain we endured.
This heart of mine,
has hoped for a life,
better and brighter.
My prayers intact,
despite life's lack of tact.
This heart of mine,
has wondered a million times,
why it endures,
this loneliness.
In all its glory,
this profound misery.
Yet this heart of mine,
has loved you all these years,
never changing its course,
even after you left.
