Unquenched

There's always been a feeling,
Of suffocation and pain,
Of the never ending story,
Of the restless heartbreak..

I stand by the door, waiting,
For him to come, and bow,
To serenade and love,
And ride away into the unknown..

But cloaked in red, he never comes,
The tragedy of distance, never known,
"The gap!" I scream, but unheard,
My life is taking a new turn!

A part of me is lost, I know not where,
In depth of valleys, please search,
Beyond the green plains, just watch,
You might find it there, untouched.

I feel the emptiness, O Lord!
Endow me with the strength,
For the pain I need to bear,
For the love which is unfair,
Faith is dying, in me now,
I need an angel, need a crown..

Somethings don't change, I believe,
The Love I have, will never,
For him, I bear in my heart,
"Forever, it is.", I hear myself,
"Forever, it is.", I repeat,
Look up into the sky, and speak,
"Wherever you are", I say,
"I am here, still waiting for you."

I still stand, but now by the window,
I don't wait, but look out and see
Those others standing, and wanting,
"Fools!", I call them, and turn,
I look into the mirror, and know,
The tears of theirs, are real,
The pain I felt, still lies,
Buried deep, it is though,
I understand their life..

A life of desire,
A life of love,
A life of denial,
And a life..
Of a thirst unquenched..
