We have all been in a situation or two
Which we consider to be a tragedy
From losing a loved one forever
To saying goodbye to a fury companion
To saying goodbye to someone important who is in pursuit of
Their goals and dreams
We ache over their departure and are scarred by the loss
We try to find the strength to let go and move on
But every attempt to do so is weakened
By the hurt we feel in our hearts
After what seems to be a decade of time has passed
We can finally let go of the hurt we once felt so strongly
For some, just the thought of losing someone or something
So near and dear is to their definition the most epic tragedy
But the greatest tragedy of all I have found is not in losing someone you love,
It's the love one cannot have,
The love not reciprocated
For there is a yearning to fill their world with your unconditional love
And an insatiable hunger for their embrace
All of that which you want cannot be fulfilled
Your love denied, your love perpetually unfurled...
