I gave you my love-forever.
My forever was mine to give.
Now loneliness is my forever,
And my forever is mine to live.

I gave you my heart-forever.
My heart was mine to give.
Now brokenhearted is my forever,
And brokenhearted, I must live.

But time, too, is mine-forever.
And healing is slow to forgive.
Still, in the silence of my forever,
I choose, alone, to live.
You have the gift to give
