And you can’t have
What you can’t have,
Desperate moments,
Come and go
As live illusions,
Do escape thru
Every door.
Hopeless, half-way
Smiles,
Do travel miles
When roads of sadness
Are their guides…
To find, yet know
There is no way
To reach
The ghosts of yesterday,
In shattered dreams
That still live on
As burningly,
As does the Sun!

Pain,
That does not start,When Love is gone,Happiness too,So hard to find,A Love all Yours,And when it’s gone,Closed are all doors.
