Lost Love Poem by Phil Soar

I guess the thought of losing someone new
Never crossed my mind
Whilst your memory is still alive
Then that feeling is unkind
I guess the thought of losing you
Has made me so aware
That to fall in love again so soon
Is somehow so unfair

So I guess I'll just say No to love
I guess I'll soldier on
I guess I'll just keep dreaming of
The days we were as one
And I'll hope someday there'll be a star
To light my way again
And give my dreams a beam of light
So time can ease the pain

If I'd imagined new beginnings
As each new morning came
And tried to see the brighter side of life
I'd have felt shame
For as you lay there, looking up
With your deep eyes of blue
It hurt to think of anything
Except of helping you

Now as my days have an emptiness
I try to look ahead
I want to be more positive
But all I do is cry instead
And I hope that you can understand
That if I found someone new
I may begin my life again
But will NEVER forget you

So I guess I'll have to move along
And give my life a chance
I guess I'll learn to love again
To smile, to sing, to dance
And I guess if you could talk to me
You'd agree that's what to do
And when the pain has eased a while
I'll remember loving you
