Where Love Takes Us . . .

I feel I have nothing to offer
nothing left any more
I am tired I am weary
Scratch the surface
of this happy facade
this mask that I wear
and there you will
find nothing
but lost hopes
and emptiness
I cannot explain
how I reached this place
This is not what I had hoped for
not what I had wished
but here I am just the same
chasing shadows and dreams
which disappear
get so close
but always
just out of reach
I wanted to go
where love takes us
that happy state
where we blossom and grow
that feeling of belonging
where all we perceive
has a rosey glow
but I wonder now
if I shall ever know. . .
