Tears for you will not be shed, Thoughts of you are buried and dead, For there is another that you call your own, While I, envy-wrought, stand alone. My heart, to you, will now be closed, And feelings no longer will be exposed, For now another holds your adoration, While I, unsuccessful, suppress frustration. If this were a contest, the victor you'd be, And I clearly beaten, by you and by she, But life is no game, as I've sorely found, And by your emotions and past you are bound. Though I must admit, upon my discovery Of your new flame, there was no recovery For my heart; it had shattered already, But I pulled myself up, and with voice unsteady, Swore to remove you from my life and my mind. It's done. Behind. To you I am blind.

Anguished Oath
Tears for you will not be shed, Thoughts of you are buried and dead, For there is another that you call your own, While I, envy-wrought, stand alone. My heart, to you, will now be closed, And feelings no longer will be exposed, For now another holds your adoration, While I, unsuccessful, suppress frustration. If this were a contest, the victor you'd be, And I clearly beaten, by you and by she, But life is no game, as I've sorely found, And by your emotions and past you are bound. Though I must admit, upon my discovery Of your new flame, there was no recovery For my heart; it had shattered already, But I pulled myself up, and with voice unsteady, Swore to remove you from my life and my mind. It's done. Behind. To you I am blind.
