My beloved friend
I wish that there was anything to say
That would help
That would heal
And not harm
But any truthful statement
Is one more dagger
In your back

My would be lover
I would give all but eternity
If only this was not an issue
If only we could be
Our love could grow
But we're broken
Far too broken to be whole
Too far gone to be together

My heart's desire
Your arms were my oasis
Your love was my solace
But I cannot
Regardless of wish
Our realities too different
Our destination in conflict
And my love just not strong enough
