Before you left, you gave a piece of your heart to me;

I don't know when you'll be back—-

so I'll just wait and see.


For years I had hoped; hoping to be in your arms, again, someday.

I declined many suitors, who are standing in my way.


It was only you------

you, you, you

I had in mind;

But distance has

changed us

and in fact

also, time.


Through time

our feelings have

slowly diminished;

Our relationship

together—-

it was

finished.
