Hearts Unfelt - A Pity Tale Time and again, I’ve shared the pain Of hearts unfelt, of lover’s bane A soul turned back, a love denied All hope is crushed, by fate defied I dreamed her once, a lonely night And grasped her hand, I felt it right I dreamed her once, I dreamed her twice If fated shall I dream her thrice? In dream I heard, in dream I spoke The words of love, before I woke Confusion sets, as dreams do fade And break the seal, of bonds I’ve made In shame I laid there false asleep As thoughts would stir, my eyes did weep My heart cried out, in pain I guess As I was left, a broken mess Denied her touch, someone so near Her loving words, I’ll never hear A pain is spurred, by hearts unfelt Like flames that burn, the human pelt Mirrored before, my truths and lies I stand here lost, in shallow guise Before my eyes, I see the pain That brings on tears, like sorrow rain A pity tale, of one myself A horrid beast delays my health For Misery, it seems again Has slipped unseen, by normal man Uncaged, unleashed, it devastates My fabric soul, it desecrates For unfulfilled, by past remains It seeks a meal, of soul in chains Salvation’s sought, and not deterred My simple soul, I am referred Her hand in mine, we soon depart To planes unknown, beyond the heart
