The Shadow Of My Love

You spend your life whole waiting in despair
Only to watch it drag on.
Awaiting the one who can change everything,
only to realize
that they will never come.
The years go by and the smile
fades away,
the hope escapes your eyes and your dreams
abandon your heart.
This race is just so hard to win,
a never ending battle.
The road less taken does not appeal
to me,
for the sun has forever stopped
rising in the shadow of my love.
