Love's Torment

Love's Torment

As I sit and watch you sleep
  I wonder about the things you keep
Inside your heart as I reach and reach
For consolement and love that never
   Seems to find the surface of your heart.
Love's torment can erase the gentleness
  Of one's affection towards the other.
But forgiveness runs rampant in me
For the loneliness I seek to bury
  Makes me reach for you again and again,
Without relief in sight.
Where does the pain in my heart end?
Deep in the abyss of your fearing heart.
