Losing Faith
Eileen Goldberg 1950 (Brooklyn)
Losing you is hard to face
Here alone in this lonely place.
Our dreams and plans will not
Come true.
It hurts to think I’m losing you.
I ask myself the question why,
You shut me down, didn’t want
to try
To work it out, to fix the tear,
my life has changed, you
don’t want to be there.
I won’t forget the things
We’ve said, I won’t forget
The plans.
they’ll stay in my heart
though we are apart
I’ll do the best I can.
It’s not the same, never
will be.
Can’t stop loving you,
A truth you can’t see.
About this poem
When a moment changes everything. When faith is gone. When you have to accept and try to move on.
