Love Lost

Love was lost here

I lost what was left to you

Although, I can admit, it was not wasted

But it wasn’t the fairest trade too

Love was lost here

But if I could, I’d lose it again

The outcome wasn’t fruitless

Despite your heart’s dissent

Love was lost here

I don’t think it’ll ever be found 

It ran its course and settled somewhere deep

One can only hope it’s safe and sound 

Love was lost here

I should have realized right from the start

You lost your love too 

Just like mine, it’s lost in another’s heart

Love was lost here 

It has left us so empty

But somehow in this pain  

I can still find a place for you within me
