Alone Poem by Lorenzo Cruz

I care about you, but the feeling isn't mutual, i look in your eyes, we were once in love, my days are empty, bound under ball and chain, release me from this torture, let me love again. I close my eyes and live in my dreams, the memories we shared. I long for those days, when you cared, when you loved. None of my pleas have an effect on you, leaving me hopeless in a worst state than before. I never knew love can have such an effect, listen to the silent scream in my heart, I open my eyes and silence is sound, only the beat of my heart for you.
