Still Beating

You were my trust

You were my hope

You were my love,

But you let it down a slope.

My greatest friend,

My priceless treasure

My brightly shining star,

Who's light gave me so much pleasure.

You who allowed the chasm

You who allowed the drift

You who took our perfect harmony,

And allowed it to shift.

I'm standing here

Waiting for a sign

But you ignore me,

And won't give me your time.

After all these years

You still possess

My heart for you,

That beats with sadness.
