You may never know how long I have known

That you would leave me, leave my heart so pure.

My soul, in its anguish, does now bemoan

The loss of your truest love, to be sure.

My love for you was so strong, I did fear

That one day, in your heart, you would just leave.

My heart, now shattered, is all but a tear

Now, within such pain my heart, I bereave.

Dying among angst that besets my mind

It was you, who did leave me as you turned

Leaving my love alone, and now behind.

All has passed, my broken heart is now spurned

It is still more important to have loved

Than if not, and forever to be robbed.
