Lost In The Masquerade Of Love_ Please Remember me

 

___________________________________________________________________________

 

Will you please remember me...
as you go about your life

Or...

 as I often wonder

was I ever really felt within your heart?

 

Your love...

Had me suspended - held  captive

 like a stranger in my own mind

 

Even though...

I never meant to leave you...

 how could I have stayed

when you turned our love into such a masquarade?

How would we -

Have ever been able to stay in that kind of love?

How could we -

 Have made any of our dreams come true?

Now...
All the hopes and dreams I thought we shared

are memories tucked away...

tucked way down deep inside my heart

locked away in a watery grave of unshed tears

And so...

If you ever remember me -

I hope there are a few good times you can look back on

Because -

I really did care

I guess the question is...

Did You?

What was it...

That was cast so cruelly upon our fate?

 We were never really very good together
But...

  I was afraid to say goodbye

even though you betrayed me so

 

You still...

Dawdle around in the recesses of my mind

like crazy little cyclones spinning round -

drenching me with golden droplets of liquid tears

Leaving me...

With the sad memory of a love

that only I had for you - not you for me

A love that was never meant to be

 

And still...

Even though we're miles apart

I cry out...

"Please - stop cluttering up my heart"!Now-

As you travel on in your life...

 will you please take a bit of me with you 

because I never wanted to leave you
Yet -

 I could see no other way

Because...

I was so lost in the masquarade of your love
