A glimpse of you is all it takes
to fall in love again.
But – God! – I see you all the time
and I feel like it’s a crime
to want to be your man.
I see you with him every day,
I see you smile and chat,
and you look happy,
yes, you do,
but sometimes you seem sad.
I hear you love him – so they say –
you never say a word,
but I am sure you feel my love
and it is so absurd
to be connected,
yet neglected,
feel abandoned
and alone …
My heart’s a burning stone
inside my chest.
I love you still
and there’s no rest.
