My heart I neglected
it was grievously hurt and turned away
it refused to talk to me
by night or by day
inconsolable
incessantly it wept
we didn't talk for years
as though our happy past had been swept
into the dark bottomless sea
I have lost my best friend
and it's too late for healing
I'll regret this until the end
of time---I was young and too arrogant
to give way to feelings-I knew no meekness
I prided on my strength and resolve
remorse has come too late--what is left now is but my sadness.
