To: Love

You always tell me
You want to stay
Why then is it
You are going away?

Never does past
Repeat like this
I’ve always gotten
Your good-bye kiss

Countless tugs
And tears of the heart
Each time we grow
Closer apart

I don’t understand
Don’t know if I will
You enter to leave
And never fulfill

Once I think
You’re mine to keep
I sow the seeds
But do not reap

Labor is plenty
The harvest is none
You get so near
Before turning to run

I know they say
That love is blind
But even that
I cannot find

My love’s not blind
It’s deaf and dumb
Leaving each time
​My heart gets numb
