"A sad song"

PrintPrint

Could I turn around and walk away
Feel the beat of my heart pound
Will this hurt ever disappear

Would I turn around and walk away
Do you see me on the ground
As tears pour down, melt down

Should I turn around and walk away
Face down, I pray
Dear God show me the way

Happiness seems so long ago
Broken dreams, a sad song
Even though, I love you so

If I turn around and go
Know this; there’s no turning back
Off the beaten track

Your lack of yearning
Burning of my desires
Love soon expires

Should I, Could I, Would I walk away
Sometimes we don’t see eye to eye
Try me; I’ll leave with a blink of the eye

If you’re done loving me
One by one; I’ll pack my bags and go
Bring back our love, from way back when

I’ll stay, only out of my love
It hasn’t gone away
If it does; I’ll drive away

Off the beaten track
A sad song
Of broken dreams

Behind The Poem: 

When a love starts to fade,when you think about walking away.The thought of loosing something that COULD go back to the way it was before.Love hurts!
