An Empty Heart
He came again as just before
a simple knock upon the door
no smiles or kisses did he place
a tortured look upon his face
i felt his absence standing there
the emptied heart i could not bear
so many words lay quiet and still
a hollow chest he would not fill
and what of love so fond and true
has time the bandit changed your view
a stranger stood before me then
last tragic scene when lovers end
are all forevers gone for good
an empty place where you once stood...
