Rest

I cannot stop time
I cannot change my past
Just as surely
As I cannot stop
Myself from being sad

I still think about him
I still wish it were not so
I still have feelings for him
That will not go away

I take a step forward
As time passes by
I may forget
But can always recall

Loneliness
Is my constant companion
No matter where I go
How I change
It always follows me

Sadness becomes me
As the sun sets on the horizon
And thoughts surface
From the business of the day

All I wish
Is for this pain
To go away
So I can rest
