I find myself searching
even though I look the other way,
I try to stop the madness…
but can’t seem to stay away.
I’m still learning how not to look
in the places you would hide
in the corner of my heart
where all my tears reside.
Lost within the pages of
a story left untold
with a never ending message
that has grown very old,
like a bruise upon my heart
I cannot feel the pain,
and so I let you touch it
till it hurts me once again.

The One Thing I know For Sure 
When love departs the heart beats on with a single drum, lost and heartbroken it yearns the warmth of before and yet the realisation of a love lost helps to ease the wanting, until one day everything is alright again.
This is one of your best pieces, and I generally don’t like people’s attempts at this style of poem. Nicely rendered. I do find that when I do this I like to separate stanzas with a single hyphen on a single line. The spacing we have no control over. Again, well done!
Diane,
I was so moved by this poem that I actually took out a pen and a piece of paper so I could write it down myself. It made my eyes fill up with tears. This is exactly how I feel in my relationship…(if I can even call it that). I think I may post this on my own blog. It really touched me. Thanks for the gift…
Love,
Ava
