Lost in love never had

Could an illusion rescue you from solitude?
Would a sound mind notice her sad eyes?
Is a dream worth the ache of what is true?

As she cries the tears of a "little girl" lost,
her heart bleeds as she breaks.
She's wide open to a naked fear.

If you listen to a heartbeat, does it speak of someone's name?
Does it flicker flames of hope, and echo the sounds of home?
An illusion warms the mind, and shapes the heart like a dream.
So surreal it is to roam alone, like a quixotic dance.....of loneliness....

All alone in the open hands of the night,
This is a girl, lost in love never had.
When all is silent and subdued....is there a far off cry heard in your mind?

Would you think me weak to feel defeated, cheated in what might have been?
What drives a young heart to stay, when all but hope is based on a dream?

Can you feel your heart as you catch a glimps of her eyes?
Would it matter to you, that one moment in time?
Is it okay to feel......
Alright to want.....
Will it hurt to stay this way......
