Love's words still on your lips

Embrace so tightly grips

You turn and walk away

Your journey is one-way

Abandon! Run from fear!

Not wanting to see tears

Escape to a new place

Distance a saving grace

But think of what you'll miss

Choosing a quick dismiss

A love still held within

Still breathes beneath your skin

Do your memories haunt

A heart still filled with want?

And do you feel regret

Watching distant sunset?

But steps of life move on

Seek peace in each new dawn

I'll set you on love's shelf

And look within myself

Must find a path to walk

And let my heart unblock

Let beats of a new love

Slip on like a new glove

And on love's shelf will sit

Abandoned love from split

How does it feel to know?

I crave a new love's glow
