How many times can ones heart give love,
when it has been broken and hurt in the past,
each moment shared with another have been placed above,
so many heartbeats until it gives out at last,

The years have flown and time is no longer a race,
it beats a slow pace no longer the desire,
age and worry now strain this old face,
wondering whether this heart could rekindle another fire,

When does one give up the lovers mad chase,
knowing that the walls of this heart so very thin,
maybe its best to go all alone and with gods grace,
does one have the strength to have a new begin,

Different dating sites to find someone new,
the first time online you found her,
yet another heartache left you so blue,
can you raise your pulse enough to care,

Now jaded and so often rejected,
why pretend to be cheerful and hopeful,
this is how life is now reflected,
time to move on and allow it to become restful.
