The Cemetery of Forgotten Love
By Ladybird
10 June 2005

                                   The Cemetery of Forgotten Love

                                   My soul is destroyed

                                   I have no heartbeat

                                   I cannot hear it.

                                   My heart stopped functioning today

                                   destroyed by no words or love from you.

                                   No recognition of the intensity of feelings we knew.

                                    All gone,

                                    wrecked by lifes cruel journey

                                    that seperated us from each other.

                                    What now?

                                    How will life go on?

                                    How cruel the world seems

                                    without the knowledge that you are still there,

                                     thinking of me,

                                     caring, loving and filling your dreams with thoughts of me

                                     as I have filled my dreams with thoughts of you.

                                     It is unbearable to think I cannot hope anymore,

                                     for the treasure that life could have held.

                                     All gone now.

                                     Your coldness has reached my heart

                                     left it's mark.

                                     My tears are for the loss of our dreams my love,

                                     dreams that were yours and mine.

                                     Gone to where dreams fade and die,

                                     in the cemetery of forgotten love.

Ladybird, this is strong and has inspired me to write a simular poem, it also makes me think of my work as I look after Graves for people who are unable to do so, I enjoyed reading it very much. 
Thanks :)
perfect
