A line that I can't cross
My heart is in a quandary
It cannot bear the loss

It is the color line
That keeps me from my prayer
I wouldn't need a sign
If my true love was fair

And I can have her in a dream
A sin that I can scheme
I cross the color line
She's nowhere to be seen

When I awake I see her still
So I consume the wine
No help in this betrayal
I'm just a valentine

The heart betrays
It looks and stays
Her heart is not aware
That once, she was a prayer [comments] => 4 [counter] => 188 [topic] => 22 [informant] => jaavys [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

The Color Line

I know there is a boundary
A line that I can't cross
My heart is in a quandary
It cannot bear the loss

It is the color line
That keeps me from my prayer
I wouldn't need a sign
If my true love was fair

And I can have her in a dream
A sin that I can scheme
I cross the color line
She's nowhere to be seen

When I awake I see her still
So I consume the wine
No help in this betrayal
I'm just a valentine

The heart betrays
It looks and stays
Her heart is not aware
That once, she was a prayer

Good write. I can greatly relate to what you saying, except for the prayer part, there is no god for me, not anymore....
Keep writing
