It's all I can do,
To drink so fast.
Quickly! Forget the love I thought would last.
She pined as I,
Though the miles lay far,
The torturing distance; left us both so apart.
"When will you come?",
Left answerless by me.
Everything working to part us endlessly.
Both left in tears,
And time took its toll,
Our hearts were left, with bleeding, soft holes.
"I'll come back!",
My vow,
"But when -- and how!?"
And to her,
I had no assurance,
Only a test of her endurance.
And her heart grew impatient,
And it built its thick wall,
At once when I came, it couldn't hear my call.
Now I shudder,
And now I quake,
For my delay was a final
