All the love that you long for eludes you

 I could have found this perfect soul

to navigate this narrow goal

that never seems to disappear

and yet did disappear

when I needed it most

beyond black trees to which I aspire

beyond bright roads where glories transpire

only to dream above and beyond

eating me up inside day in and out

knowing that that happiness

is probably now someone else's

instead of mine

when I could have earned it

waiting to live

waiting to die

only to give

only to cry

once and again

for the longest time
