Torch of Love

I keep a flame burning
in the hopes of your return,
A torch of all my emotions
a wish, a yearning to burn.

I can and will not forget you
the flame Im burning for you will never cease,
A torch of eternity of pain and suffering
an agonizing desire for my mind to be at peace.

In the hopes that you'll come back, I will let you go
since that is what you have asked me to do,
This torch that always burns, fueled by my love
will burn forever, and forever only for you.

If you ever miss me, I will be here waiting
so please dont hesitate or in your heart have no doubt,
And even if you never come back to me
the flame that is burning for you, will never burn out.

About this poem:
Wrote this on June 23, 2010. 11 days after we broke up. When Crystal told me we would never get back together, and that she needed me to let her go, so she could move on. Didnt know at the time, she already had moved on with someone else. lol. Atleast now I can find the humor in it.
